The Affair at the Theatre and Prisoner of Nellie
A narrative from an Astor era column recounts Nellie, a boarding school acquaintance, entangled with Harry a theatre actor and suitor. Her parents seek help as she elopes with him, aided by promises of wealth and social pressure. The piece also notes political and military items, including French leaders and war figures, and ends with a vivid theatre scene in New York.
