= Mrs. Harlowe :-acted 5 times-21 years before this piece begins, Mortimer had been at Madrid— he one night saw two men bury a young womanthe younger of the men was in grief-the elder showed by his countenance that he was accustomed to murder-the two men were Ramirez and Paulo Mortimer at that time did not know them-after his return to England he was struck with horror by meeting with Paulo in the suite of the Spanish minister-Paulo perceived Mortimer's agitation, and made his escape-at the opening of the piece, Mortimer is again at Madrid-Paulo attempts to stab Mortimer-Henry enters and arrests his arm - they exeunt fighting-Paulo is killed-Mortimer accuses Ramirez of having murdered his sister -- Ramirez is penitent-Henry marries Lorenza--the circumstances which give the title to this piece, are more suitable to a regular play than to a musical Drama in 2 acts-there is an unnatural mixture of tragedy and farce-but on the whole this Drama is not a very bad one-it was written by Arnold.
