Courtship." 1t is described as a colonial
costume comedy, Inasmuch as the action
of the play occurs in Revolutionary

shown in the quaint fashions of that
period. Additional importance is at

company, due to the fact that at least
two of the characters in it will be
portrayed by their originators in the
charming persons Of Miss Percy Haswell
and Miss Olive Oliver. 1t will be recalled
that Miss HaswePs engagement with
the late Augustin Daly's stock company
was interrupted after six continuous
seasons by an offer from VIM. H. Crane,
with whom she remained for three
years, during which time she created all
