Crowded House at Comedy Drama,

The comedy drama, The Squire's Daugh-
ter, was presented to a crowded house
Friday and the audience felt fully re-.
paid for coming. Five of the characters
were taken by the same actors as when
the play was presented here Il years ago
These were Josiah Brown, a countryman,
taken in an imitable way by Eugene Cud-
worth; Fred Dudley. a young lawyer, by
r. w. Blood Albert Read, not beyond re
demption, +. II. Lawrence; Lila Hawkins,
the squrc's daughter Mrs. f, Fl. Law
renee, and Francois, W. NJ. Sparks. OF
the remaining parts the characters of
Squire Hawkins and wife, taken finely by
C. II. Evans and Mrs. w. NJ. Sparks,
formerly were taken by Mr. and Mrs.
Arthur Rand, now of Fitchburg, Mass,
and the pretty part of Stella Brown,
which Mrs. A. r. Marsh carried off, was
then taken by her sister, Mrs Lizzie CAL
d1ich) Stone. The makeup in each part
was excellent, and the characterizations
were well carried out.
One of the best scenes and one which
kept the audience in roar of laughter
was when Squire Hawkins and Mr.. Brown
returned from a temperance meeting. Al
though the plot of the play was light
there was sufficient amount of comedy
with an undertone of pathos and tragedy
in the part of Albert Read to keep up the
interest
a dance, with ,crowded floor, followed
the play and refreshments of ice cream
and cake were served by the L. &. K
society. The proceeds of the evening will
be used by the society toward building q
dining room and kitchen in the basement
