At this time it was brought home to me that I had been lucky to escape when I did not succeed, as a boy, in making the sea my business.
But as all things come to an end, so did this voyage.
On a beautiful August day in 1864 I 73 Digiti ized by Google EECOLLECTIONS OP A PLAYEB had my first glimpse of the shores of America.
Captain Page had given ns the address of a person in New York where he thought we might be accommodated with board and lodging. Here we were comfortable but for frequent attac...ks of clouds of mos- quitos. I had a friend, a member of Mr.
Copeland's Liverpool company, who was a native American, and he had first ad- vised me to go to America, as to which country he was enthusiastic. He told me that the principal theaters in New York were Mr. Wallack's and Mr. Burton's, and that if I could succeed in getting into either I should be well placed for the rest of my life. I remember that he had grown enthusiastic, telling me that I certainly should double the salary which I then received, probably getting three pounds (fifteen dollars) a week at first, and that, with good luck, I might eventually receive a salary of five pounds (twenty-five dol- lars) a week.
