 The mimeographed text of a sketch in one scene called ''[[ Irish Justice]]'' is ascribed to a "Charles Morton" in  U.S. Government Printing Office's ''Catalogue of Copyright Entries'' (1914). This is most likely to be a reference to the famous [[Music Hall]] impresario Charles Morton, (1819–1904)[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Morton_(impresario)], in whose collection held in the "Charles Morton Agency Collection of American Popular Drama 1842-1950", a copy of the text has been found and published in Alex. Byer's library of tabloid plays (1914).
-As Morton is not known as a playwright himself, but as very successful impresario, it is more likely that this an anonymous text  created by a performer appearing in one of the vaudeville shows put on Morton's New Canterbury theatre (a music hall venue) in the early 1860s (The date based on the fact that it was first performed in South Africa in 1866), and ascribed to him by the compilers of the library material in veiwe of the provenance.
