simple justice to the late Clyde Fitch
to record these facts.
The story is simple. The chief actors
in this human drama are the members
of the family of George Rand, a bank
er, of Middleourgh, n. y. The banker
is the father of an illegitimate child,
George Hammock, who, knowing tnat
he has something on the financier,
bleeds him upon various occasions.
The first scene shows the library of the
Rand family in Middleburgh, the act
eliminating in the discovery of the
son, George Rand, Jr., that Hammock
is the illegitimata child of his father.
The revelation kills the banker. The
ma tural son thereupon decides to re-
move to New York. thus listening to
the call of the city. The second act
shows the family ensconced in beau
tiful home on Fifth avenue. Rand hav-
ing entered politics, he is on the eve
of being nominated for governor when
he makes a second discovery which
proves ev3n more dramatic and tragic
than that of the previous act. Han
neck-crool1, dope fiend-is in love with
Cicely Rand and when taken to task
by his employer he confesses that they
are married.
1t was the desire of Mr.. Fitch that
the finish of his story should never be
made known, that is. in advance of
the first performance and the same
wish has actuated the Shuberts in
the finale of the second
act. Suffice it to say. Mr.. Fitch has
sounded the deepest depths Of tragedy.
