Excerpt from Mary's Millions: A Comedy in Three Acts Abija - Aged 60. 'old in wisdom, but young'in spirits, he generally conceals his Shrewdness beneath a self - assumed rustic stupidity, because he enjoys laughing and being laughed at. The character should be played in such a manner that its strength gradu ally and consistently develops, reaching a winning climax in the final act. His affection for Eudora is something that is understood rather than expressed. He is always kindly and lovable, even when he strives to be fierce. The part affords limitless opportunity for the skilled and sympathetic character actor. His costume throughout the play includes an old, faded denim shirt, with the cuffs rolled back, an old vest, only partially buttoned, so that he can easily turn it back to reveal the badge which is pinned inside, patched trousers, tucked into cow-hide boots, slouch hat. Hale and hearty make-up, with few wrinkles, semi-bald or gray wig, smooth-shaven or Short gray goatee. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
