		Herbert Beerbohm Tree has already proved himself to be the foremost actor-manager in London, and his artistic temperament and instincts qualify him most admirably for the position he has made for himself after many years of honourable labour in the Thespian fields of art.

		Tree is to be congratulated upon the way in which his company have learned the difficult art of deportment as practised in Japan.

		And though Beerbohm soon purged it of its worst excesses, even his mature work is liable to be disfigured by the occasional facetious archaism or piece of preciosity—“clomb” instead of “climbed,” say, or “belike,” or a stilted subjunctive (“to adapt it were harder than all the labours of Hercules rolled into one”).
		Of the eight hundred subjects whom Beerbohm drew in the course of his career, the great majority are unknown today, and in comparison with his contemporaries, Hall argues, we are “decidedly handicapped” when it comes to appreciating his portrayals of them.
		Beerbohm himself twice dealt in writing with the question of whether or not his family had originally been Jewish—in a letter to Bernard Shaw, who had raised the issue, in 1903, and in a letter some fifty years later to Beerbohm Tree’s biographer, Hesketh Pearson.
