Scene from the new drama of "The Old Chateau", at the Haymarket Theatre, 1854. '...the last scene of Mr. S. Coyne's new play: Miss Reynolds; Mr. Howe; Mr. H. Farren...An innocent wife, suspected by her husband, having thoroughly justified herself, at an interview brought about without her knowledge at "the Old Chateau," with a lover; nothing remains but that the Othello of the scene should countermand the orders that he has given to an accomplice to shoot the offending young man...It doubtless required great delicacy on the part of the dramatist to avoid inducing an unworthy sentiment; but, so chaste are the colours in which the heroine is portrayed; so pure is the state of her mind represented throughout; so thoroughly unconnected is she with all the circumstances by which the fatal result is necessitated, that it is impossible to suspect her of any sinister motive'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854.
