...love, ruined, and otherwise maltreated, had taken to piracy to retrieve their broken fortunes; that their captain, Stubbs, having insisted on taking a ship with ladies on board, they had put him in irons, and now fresh from a ship-wreck were in doubt what to do. A solo, rendered by Weaver as Stubbs, and a chorus tune, "The Bowery Grenadiers" deserve notice. The stage business was excellent. Exeunt omnes. A solo by Dorothy Dosear's "Chanson du Colonel" came next. Then John Harvard enters. Duet, "Blacks Mantles" in which he is rejected follows. Exit Dorothy. Enter Rev. Milkweed...

The beautiful tenor solo from Mendelssohn's "Hymn of Praise," sung by Mr. Ricketson, then followed. Rev. Dr. Gordon read from the twelfth chapter of the Epistle to the Hebrews, and on this based his address, on "The Irremediableness of Sin." However good repentance may be, it can never undo the past.
