AbstractHistoryArchive Description

A review of the musical farce Jurisprudence (aka Irish Justice) and Jack Kearns role in the production. The critic makes special note of the 'filthy business' Kearns' imparted into his role, suggesting that such actions are repugnant. The chief complaints are directed at Kearns' habit of picking his teeth with a pen, scratching his head with it and then using the pen as a toothpick again. The critic also found fault with the relish in which Kearns drank a bottle of ink.
