First Samuel French edition after the 1923 original in Carolina magazine. Cheng-Chin Hsiung remains a somewhat elusive figure, though the introduction intimates that his play was written while he was a student at the University of North Carolina. Despite the play being written in English, the direction and plot both follow traditional Chinese theatre traditions.
