... . The Fat Knight seems to have been a more sympathetic character to the actors of previous generations than he is to those of recent times. A man may have been a playgoer of many years' experience of the London stage without having made acquaintance with any other Falstaff than Mr. Beerbohm Tree's, who gave us the lesser Falstaff of the Merry Wives, some seven years ago.

He stands about five feet ten, and is every inch a ladies' man. His modesty and retiring disposition would not allow of his admitting this to be ...
