...distinguish himself was H. G. Eisenstadt '12, who played to the life a naive peddler. Hartwell himself was taken by R. M. Middlemass '09, whose acting grew steadily better from beginning to end, a gentle, noble, and at every crisis finely impassioned figure. Miss Gragg in an uneven role gave through the last two acts so sincere a performance that the house broke into applause at her defiance of the Rabbi, and then at the last became physically uncomfortable over her anguish at Hartwell's well-acted deatn.

Delbrueck 1G., of Berlin, played the difficult double role of Uncle and Newphew with skill and versatility. H. von Kaltenborn '09, as Oberst on Dorsigny, successfully adapted his acting and appearance to the demands of his part. Of the female parts, that of Frau von Dorsigny by C. O. Mueller '11, received the best interpretation. E. W. Friend '08, who played the part of Sophie, acquitted himself creditably, considering that he assumed the role when rehearsals were well...
