Evening Republican, Volume 15, Number 89, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 14 April 1911 — East Lynn. [ARTICLE]

East Lynn.

Our Stock Go. returns next Friday night with the play that is always new, although played before the American- public since our grandparents were children, the ever* green drama, “East Lynn.” Hardly a man, woman or child but has wept with Lady Isabel, hated Sir Frances Levison. pitied Archibald Carjyske and laughed at Mrs. Corny and old Dill. These characters have become classics, their words so familiar that one witnessing the play seems almost to be repeating lines learned himself. The plot, so true to life, appeals to all, and one never sees it often enough to become surfeited with it. A play like “East Lynn” is like an oasis in the desert of modern plays and flimsy plots—it has a dignity, an appeal all its own, shared by no other piece.
