TESTIMONIALS. 
From Prof. W. J. Rolfe.— The plan of the game is a good one and is well carried 
out. It ought to be of service in schools and academies, where only a few of the plays are 
studied, by leading the young people to extend their reading and thus get better acquainted 
with Shakespeare’s large company of men and women. I shall take pleasure in com¬ 
mending it 
From Horace Howard Furness.— Surely this charming game, like mercy, is 
twice blessed—it blesses him that gives and him that takes, and all must arise from it 
with a knowledge of Shakespeare deepened and familiarized by playing it. I greatly doubt 
that age can wither it or custom stale its infinite variety. 
From Prof. H. L. Chapman, Bowdoin College. —I wish to congratulate 
the club on the ingenuity and good judgment shown in the construction of the game. I 
hope it will have the success it deserves, and it will certainly give me especial pleasure to 
commend it. 
From the OutlooK.— The Shakespeare Club of Camden, Maine, has turned its knowl¬ 
edge of the great dramatist's works to excellent account by the game called "The Study of 
Shakespeare.” The game cannot be played by an ignorant person nor can it be played 
without gaining additional knowledge of Shakespeare’s plays and characters.
