Yet he would discharge that player incont incontinently for some offense that any other star on earth would trivial And it is not the playing members of the company alone he watches over oyer Every comes within his range Once while in Canada his stage car carpenter carpenter penter died Mansfield did not learn of the mans death leath until the day following follow followIng Ing his demise Then he sent for his manager managerI I have just learned of the death of poor Murphy Murph said the actor you of course have hae done everything that Is proper Yes You have not neglected anything on
