PUBLISHERS’ NOTE

The Princess Winsome, the part taken by the “Little Colonel” in the play called “The Rescue of Princess Winsome” in “The Little Colonel’s Hero,” has shared the popularity of the creator of the role.

Appealing to children because of its association with their favorite heroine, and to their parents because of its high moral tone and the beauty of its lines, the play has found great favor among children’s clubs for their private theatricals, in many cases rivalling the success of the “Little Colonel” and her friends in obtaining funds for charitable purposes.

In response to repeated requests, the publishers are glad to present the play in separate form, making it more easily accessible to young amateur actors and actresses.
