The young actor who thought he saw his part in Maxwell's play had
so far made his way upward on the Pacific Coast that he felt
justified in taking the road with a combination of his own. He met
the author at a dinner of the Papyrus Club in Boston, where they
were introduced with a facile flourish of praise from the
journalist who brought them together, as the very men who were
looking for each other, and who ought to be able to give the
American public a real American drama. The actor, who believed he
had an ideal of this drama, professed an immediate interest in the
kind of thing Maxwell told him he was trying to do, and asked him
to come the next day, if he did not mind its being Sunday, and talk
the play over with him. He was at breakfast when Maxwell came, at
about the hour people were getting home from church, and he asked
the author to join him. But Maxwell had already breakfasted, and he
hid his impatience of the actor's politeness as well as he could,
and began at the first moment possible: "The idea of my play is
biblical; we're still a very biblical people." He had thought of
the fact in seeing so many worshippers swarming out of the
churches.
