...complete cast has not yet been selected, but it has been decided that the principal parts will be taken by R. C. Benchley '12, as "Ralph Roister Doister," R. F. Duncan '12 as "Merry Greek," O. W. Hausserman '12 as "Dominick Doughtie," and H. W. Miller '12 as "Goodlack...
...full in "The Fair Maid of the West." The play is thus genuinely a revival, for it is given practically intact. So invigorating is the courageous, open-air climate that even the most arrant coward is shamed out of his cowardice into as energetic courage; the returning Captain Goodlack, who is much tempted to gainful villany, is too conscious of good impulses within and without to keep his evil purpose; and the only real villany about is the national villany of Spain...

Spencer, in the mean-while, has been wounded...
...Goodlack arrives at Foy and resolves to test Bess, hoping she may prove false and that he may keep the legacy. But finding his efforts futile, he finally tells Bess of the money. Spencer returning from Fayal, has been captured by a Spanish captain. Bess, in the meanwhile, has decided to set sail for Fayal and as captain of the ship "Negro," learns that the Spaniards have desecrated the supposed Spencer's body. The "Negro" gives fight to a Spanish vessel and captures it. When Spencer is brought before her she thinks him a ghost, and he does not recognize...
