single work
drama
humour
This comedic play follows four principal characters as they gather on the veranda of the Bishop's home and inspect his pearls. The conversation turns to ghosts and the Bishop reveals that he suspects he has received visits from the ghost of John Dampier, the buccaneer. As it turns out, "the ghost" in question is one of the four people on the veranda, not a ghost but a thief intent on stealing his pearls.
