BEULAH MARIE DIX’S

ALLISON’S LAD AND OTHER MARTIAL INTERLUDES

By the co-author of the play, “The Road to Yesterday,” and author of the novels, “The Making of Christopher Ferringham,” “Blount of Breckenlow,” etc. 12mo. $1.35 net; by mail, $1.45.

Allison’s Lad, The Hundredth Trick, The Weakest Link, The Snare and the Fowler, The Captain of the Gate, The Dark of the Dawn.

These one-act plays, despite their impressiveness, are perfectly practicable for performance by clever amateurs; at the same time they make decidedly interesting reading.

Six stirring war episodes.  Five of them occur at night, and most of them in the dread pause before some mighty conflict.  Three are placed in Cromwellian days (two in Ireland and one in England), one is at the close of the French Revolution, another at the time of the Hundred Years’ War, and the last during the Thirty Years’ War.  The author has most ingeniously managed to give the feeling of big events, though employing but few players.  The emotional grip is strong, even tragic.
