As the farce of A Blighted Being serves as a
-vehicle for the combo dis- tress of Mr. Robson, so does the slight drama of The Trustee, likewise produced at the Olympic, serve to display the talent of Mr: Wigan in a more pathetic delineation of mental anguish. The feelings which be por- trays are those of an honest man, who having mislaid a valuable deposit, is horroretricken at the thought that his honour is irretrievably wounded. Save as an expedient for exhibiting this peculiar moral position, the piece is utterly worthless; but it derives a value not its own from Mr. Wigan's refined impersonation.
