Between the ages OF fifteen and
eighteen Edwin Booth was almost con-
stantly the intimate companion Of his
father. Junlus Brutus Booth the elder.
That fathers eccentricities were such
as 10 tax even the devotion OF such
son. but Edwins affectionate care
never failed. He used to beguile the
tragedian's time following his nrduous
performances by playing the violin or
singing negro ballads. accompanying
himself on the banjo. Many times he
attended his father on long walks be
tween midnight and morning. In 1851.
on certain night, the father was
booked TO appear as Richard Ill at
the National theater. New York. An
hour before the time for the curtain
10 rise he chose 10 lock himself In
closet nj his hotel and refused every
persuasion his son could offer to keep
his engagement.
In despair Edwin rushed to the tho

manager was distracted and In his
excited questioning OF the boy acci-
dentally learned that the tragedian
had flippantly told Edwin to go ana
act Richard himself. "We'll take him
at his word" said the manager. And
the frightened boy was FASTENED to

oquy the substitution was immediate

for Edwin had several times appeared

made his very first appearance. The

eighteen years Of age. played Richard

that brilliant genius that afterward
made him n star OF much greater emil
