SENIOR PLAY PLAY CAST Absalon Hawkes .

Anne Watkins, accompanied by Mamie Rose arrives in Littleboro to take possession of the hotel left her by her grandfather. She finds the sheriff in charge and the place practically empty because of mysterious happenings seeming to point to the presence of Ghosts. Aleck and Ted arrive to fulfill an engagement at the theater and remain to help Anne run down the mystery. The arrival of a movie company adds to the excite- ment. The play is enlivened by the antics of Hiram, the village Romeo, and Miss Abigail, a hopeful spinster. Absalon Hawkes who wants to buy the place figures in the mysterious events as does Higgenbottom, a fake invalid. Jonas and Matilda, brave detectives, finally solve the mystery and Anne gains a buried treasure as well as a husband. The chief comedy is furnished by Rastus, as a superstitious negro porter.
