Letter by George Jordan on Boucicault trial at Lyceum
In a May 21 1863 Lyceum letter George Jordan replies to Dion Boucicault over the Col Gibbon trial for false imprisonment. He challenges Boucicault’s explanations of events surrounding his wife Mrs Jordan at Drury Lane and details Boucicault’s midnight visit to her lodging, his own absence from trial, and the couple's separation. Jordan asserts his own conduct and calls for public judgment of Boucicault’s statements.
