Synopsis

Excerpt from China, or the Relief of the Legations: A Historical Dramatic Spectacle in Six Tableaux

In this as in my other productions, it has been my aim, not only to present the subject in an interesting manner, but to maintain, as far as practicable, the historical accuracy and sequence of the various episodes. It may be said that such labours are not necessary in the production of a melodramatic spectacle. But the gratify ing reflection that I am affording the public a true representation of the actual historical incidents, with regard for accuracy in every detail.
