"Ibsen's ghost" was the first play written entirely by Sir James Matthew Barrie to be publicly performed; it was staged in 1891 at "Toole's Theatre", hence the alternative title given in the typescript, and cancelled, 'or Toole-up-to-date'. It has not been published. Many of the alterations in this draft are in the nature of cuts; in particular the rhyming finale has been cut.
Typescript draft of ‘The will’ by Sir James Matthew Barrie, with some revisions in Barrie's hand, and with others (in blue pencil, mostly cuts) that may be in another hand.
