Ten Nights In a Bar Room features Grafton dramatist
Grafton’s Masquers of Fairmont Teachers College present the old temperance play on May 14. Wilbur Knight plays Sample Wichel, with Miss Henrietta Hein as Meritable Cart, in lively comedy scenes praised as sharper than recent plays. Swibel’s vaudeville-worthy wit draws laughs, and Miss Hein’s performance follows her success in Mannington and Fairmont. The show, a benefit for South Grafton elementary school, recalls the 1856 New York staging and features a multi-act synopsis of village gossip, a doomed barroom, and redemption themes, concluding with Swichel’s abstinence and reform. The event reflects strong local attendance and ticket sales.
