Of his own words on that occasion.
Mr.. Wilson says:

Monday night was written especially
for Grace George and ii Is said. fits this
young coincidence unusually well. al
though it is more dramatic than pieces
generally attempted by comedy act
resses. The wide range of Miss Georges
capabilities. however. enables her fully
TO reaiize and completely exploit all the
possibilities of the role. The work is
from the pen of Thomas Buchanan. a

is the second piece he was attempted.
