The dramatic recital "Richeleu." given :
by DIR. Henry Lawrence Southwick at
the Universalist church last evening was
well attended by the students of God !
dard seminary as well as by downtown
people. DR.. Southwiek, who has been a
speaker before other Barre audiences, :
showed the same remarkable character l
istics of an entertainer as he has before, :
and he held the entire crowd to the clos
est attention from the time he gave the :
of his drama until the final
scene in the last act. The speaker gave
in his opening remarks a few words on
the strength of the play and pointed out /.
TO the audience where the play had stood /:
the wear of nearly a century on the
stage, and, unlike most plays, was en-
ioyed as much on the stage to-day as it
was in the early days of its popularity. 4
