Mansfield as Richard the Third A Critical Review
A large audience saw Greeta the Actor in Shakespeare's Richard the Third. The reviewer finds Mansfield’s performance feeble, not bold, failing to render a cohesive or compelling elocutionary portrayal. Some scenes show literary interest, but the overall rendering is melodramatic and incoherent.

Corporation Counsel Denies Trial Board Right to Act as Civil Court
The Metropolitan police officer Private P T Lewis challenged a trial board finding of intoxication and unbecoming conduct after off duty gunfire. Corporation Counsel Duvall ruled only a civil court verdict can trigger discipline for off duty offenses, barring trial board or commissioners from trying such offenses without a prior conviction. The opinion marks a radical shift in department jurisdiction.
