Scottish Play: No. 155
The romance of run-away Gretna Green weddings, which had their vogue a century and a half ago, is depicted in this play.
An eloping couple, married in the blacksmith's smithy at Gretna, are pursued by the young lady's relatives, and a dramatic denouement proves her lover to be a worthless scamp and renders the marriage invalid. The blacksmith, his wife, and other Scots characters provide the comedy of the play.
