19 min. Presenting a one-act playlet called ‘Veterans.’ This is a comedy drama by John B. Hymer. It is an interesting story based on the graft at the Old Soldiers’ Home and is patriotic in appeal for the welfare of the vertan [sic] army man. Fern is a Philadelphia. He has a blackface comedy role which he got considerably out of, winning individual honors. The sketch proved interesting and was liberally applauded.
