In the midst of 90 DICKEXS AND THE STAGE. all the work of preparation for departure, the Editors of his Letters inform us, Charles Dickens gave minute attention to as much of the play as could be completed before he left England. It was ' the only story, ' says Mr. Forster, ' he ever helped himself to dramatise. ' The incidents are considerably changed in the drama, notably the scene in the Monastery in Act the Fifth, following Obenreizer's treachery on his fellow traveller, which concludes the... Fourth Act. The clock-lock is placed in the monastery of St. Bernard, instead of in the house of a notary, as in the tale. The whole episode of Joey Ladle's courtship of Sally Groldstraw, and his admiration of her ' beautiful language, ' is absent from the story and peculiar to the play, and contains some highly felicitous and characteristic Dickensian touches. Joey's muddled way of moralising, his intense affection for Sally Goldstraw, and his ludicrous attempts to commit her sayings to memory, relieve the other- wise somewhat sombre tone of the drama through- out, and make the honest cellarman a personage of much greater importance than he appears in the published story.
