docket in this county to be reached by
and by and similar condition exists else
where in the state. The solemn words
of the marriage service, 'Whom God hath
joined together let no man put asunder,"
should be expurgated from the Vermont

"a Day and A Night was Hoyt's last
play, that is, the last that was put onto
the stage. 1t bears all the earmarks of
Hoyt production, and with the right
company is one of his best plays. Like
all the the rest the plot is a mere skele
ton which serves for the introduction of
pleasing specalties. The company which
came to the opera house Tuesday even
ing under the direction of William Fl.
Currie was good one and the entertain
ment they gave was one of the most
enjoyable Hoyt entertainments,,e ever given
in Bellows Falls. From the rising of
the curtain until the final drop wit and
merriment had sway. The person who
sat through the evening without laugh
ing heartily more than once should be
watched; there is something wrong with
his risibles. The musical program was
long and varied, and on the whole well
executed. The singing of Scotch songs
by Emelie Benner, the female with a male
voice, was immensely pleasing to the
audience and the singer was loudly
applauded. Will II. Halter, Oliver T.
Holden, w. II. Gunnie, ALT Holt and
Cora Isham took their several roles with
the eclat of accomplished actors. In
fact the whole company was all right.
