Scene takes place on a yacht on the ocean.
The story tells of two business partners who were in love with the same woman.
At one point, the sketch becomes science fiction, when a ghost messages the passengers.
The Man from the Sea.
The audience were nervous when the ghost appears.
The sketch is capably acted.
A more weird bit of melodramatics has not been shown in vaudeville in quite some time. It remains to be found whether the nerves of vaudeville can accept all the gruesomeness along with the improbabilities.
