UNCLE TOM'S CABIN (NEW VERSION.)

_A MELODRAMA IN FIVE ACTS, BY CHAS. TOWNSEND._

PRICE, 15 CENTS.

Seven male, five female characters (some of the characters play two parts). Time of playing, 2¼ hours. This is a new acting edition of a prime old favorite, so simplified in the stage-setting as to be easily represented by dramatic clubs and travelling companies with limited scenery. UNCLE TOM'S CABIN is a play that never grows old; being pure and faultless, it commands the praise of the pulpit and support of the press, while it enlists the favor of all Christians and heads of families. It will draw hundreds where other plays draw dozens, and therefore is sure to fill any hall.
