Mrs.Barrie played the gipsy and danced most of the time, which she said was her conception of the part as it was in the book.

Her husband explained that this was a play, not a book, but she did not care and danced on and off.

She played my daughter, and I had a great scene in which I cursed her, which got rounds of applause.

Lady Lewis's daughters in beautiful Paquin dresses played Scotch lassies, and giggled in all the sad parts, and one actress who had made a great success as one of the "Two Vagabonds" made everybody weep by really trying to act.

At one time there were five men on the stage all talking Scotch dialect and imitating Irving at the same time.
