|MONCJ sentimental heart stories perhaps none is more widely known than that
told in the poem, by John Townsend Trowbridge, of "The Vagabonds." A
wandering violinist enters a barroom followed by his canine companion,
Roger. He entertains the company with Roger's tricks and relates his story.
The story of the vagabond violinist tells of "a dear girl's love," and of how the "wine went
round," and of the blasted home and broken heart that followed his taking to drink. He
relates how, years after, when a wanderer, he saw her and how she little dreamed he had
kissed the coin she had dropped to him. He finishes his story by picturing the after
scenes of his vagabond life with Roger as his companion. The
scenes depicted by the film are pronounced to be the best work
of the producer, so absorbingly dramatic and intensely true to
life does the story run. This picture most ably supplements the
poet's conception of his theme and is one that will please the
most fastidious audience.
