 A dramatisation of the novel ''The Deemster'' ("the judge") by Hall Caine (1853-1931)[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hall_Caine], set in the Isle of Man and his first great success. The plot revolves around the reckless actions of Dan Mylrea and the exile and atonement that follow. Caine himself twice adapted the book for the stage. The first time as ''[[Ben-my-Chree]]'' ("Girl of my heart" in Manx) in association with the actor Wilson Barrett, who was to play the lead role of Dan, . The play was entitled Ben-my-Chree (“Girl of my heart" in Manx); Later he fell out with Barrett, so wrote a new version called ''[[The Bishop's Son]]'', which was taken on tour in 1910, including a performance in Douglas, the capital of the Isle of Man, on 15 August.  Filmed as ''The Deemster''  in the United States by the Arrow Film Corporation, starring Hall Caine.
-''[[The Gates of Bondage ]]'' is another adaption of the work, this one done by actress [[Maud Williamson]] in the late 1890s, as a vehicle for herself and fellow actor [[Alfred Woods]] and was thereafter performed to great success throughout the British Empire and America by the [[Woods-Williamson Company]]. It was particularly popular in Australia apparently.
