Mr.. Alison writes in part as fol-
lows:
ut seems almost incredible to me
to read of Ellen Terrys passing,
even at the age Of 30; there was q
quality in her personality that
seemed of a piece with Tennyson's
Brook But I go on forever
Much of my adolescent playgo-
ing in London was in her heyday;
and the Lyceum, where Irving and
she held sway for so many years,
and the Savoy, the home of Gilbert
and Sullivan opera, were among my
principal hauntS.
within her limitations, Ellen
Terry was matchless. She was
beautiful creature physically, and
for buoyancy of bearing and the de-
piction Of the utter abandonment
of delight and merriment, Of high
comedy and the most bewitching
raillery, no actress has to my knowl-
edge ever approached within even
measurable distance of her.
Her Portia, her Rosalind, her
Olivia CThe Vicar Of Wakefield),
her Marguerite in Faust especially
in it's lighter moments; the more
sombre emotional portions were
never as conviL cling to mel remain
things of peerless dramatic beauty,
and joys for ever to ones fortunate
remembrance.
"She did not excel in heavy trag-
edy, but that fact in no wise de-
tracts from the fact that the Eng
disappearing stage is vastly the
poorer for the passing on Of its
greatest artist in the representation
of all that was bright, beautiful and
joyous"
