on Macbeth II was a decidedly sue
cessful effort, and from the first words
in which the lecturer declared that Mac
beth contained more phases OF human ma
ture than any Of the bard other writ
ings, until the conclusion, which was de
voted to a description Of the character of
Macduff, which, according To the speaker
was the noblest one in the drama. the as
semblage was held spellbound by the
charm of DR.. Stanord's voice his admir-
able reading and his Intensity in REPRO
ducing the more dramatic scenes of the
play.
Dr. Stafford dwelt at particular length
upon the Development Of the temptation
that asSailed Macbeth The idea of the
speaker was that Macbeth was a good
upright man, who fought against his
temptation for long period and in
his final struggles with his conscience on
the battlements of tns castle ii was Lady
Macbeth who precipitated him into the
chasm of crime that yawncd at their feet
The lecturer gave a short description
OF the crimes that Macbeth committed
after the murder of the King of Scot
land and of the terrible remorse and
horror that surrounded him during the
remainder of his life. He also recited a
number of portions of the play. the death
scene of Lady Macbeth IN particular be-
ing delivered with wonderful dramatic
effect.
