Compliments Tlim Very Highly.
-The Salisbury Sun has the
following complimentary remarks
on thfe "Little Rebel" which was
played there Friday night by our
talent :. ' j- ' ' '
The Concord party in their:
rendition of this bright little
i M
play was an" immense success,
each part being well interpreted
and faithfully carried out. Miss
Lentz, in the title role, was in
deed a most pleasing "Little
Rebel." Mrs. Dusenbury, in
perhaps the most difficult part,
was excellent, especially when she'
was acting the part of a rage that
could not be suppressed. Miss
Gibson, as "Kitty," in her way of
quoting her absent Bill Jonea and
all through her part, was entirely
captivating. Prof. Keesler an5
Capt. Hill were equally successful
in their roles, making all that
could possibly be made of their
parts. These players will always
find an enthusiastic audience 1 in
Salisbury."
