Elizabeth Filer Davis played the leading lady, that of "Carol Ryerson" with Henry L. Davis as the male lead, "John Harkness." Mrs. Davis was well fitted for the leading role, and played well the part of the refined daughter of the kidnaped judge, her father. The cast was composed of experienced members of the Guild and displayed remarkable talent in each role. "Mrs.

Eva Ryerson," played by Miss Annette Rehm; "Joe Kellar," the escaped convict, portrayed by Sam Greene, "Stanley Buhl," played by William Thompson, proved an excellent supporting cast for the leads. Although playing minor roles "Annie," the cook; Ruth Rogers and "Hattle," the maid, Anne Dunn, offered a direct contrast with "Annie's" sudden wit at unexpected moments and "Hattie's" quiet, morose attitude throughout the play.
