2127 - L Nov. 30:4/3 - The sensational drama, WAITING FOR THE WERDICT,
was presented to the largest audience of the season last night. This play
has recently had a successful run in the east. It is domestic in character
and appeals to those deep quiet sympathies which are common to all. The
play is full of startling incidents; the elements are so varied that nothing
in the way of stimulus is wanting. In the way of criticism, some things
foreign and unnecessary were added which would have been better left out.
The rendition was admirable, and Mr. Buchanan as the old farmer was excellent
throughout. Virginia Buchanan as the wife of the innocent convict failed
at times to put depth and feeling in her expression. The play, all in all,
was admirably delivered. (8)
