Full text (53 lines) of a Plough Monday play performed about 1893 in Halloughton and Maplebeck, Notts. The text is presented partially as a narrative, and the reader's letter was prompted by the publication of an earlier article (Nottingham Journal, 1941a). The characters were; two unnamed introducers, Beelzebub, and Doctor. There was a final song.
