Honesty: A Drama In Five Acts (1842) is a play written by Henry Spicer. The play tells the story of a young man named Frank who is torn between his desire for wealth and his commitment to honesty. Frank's father has left him a large inheritance, but it comes with the condition that he must always tell the truth. Frank struggles to maintain his honesty as he navigates the corrupt world of business and politics. Along the way, he falls in love with a woman named Alice, who shares his commitment to truthfulness. However, their relationship is threatened by the machinations of Frank's dishonest rival, Mr. Sharp. As the play unfolds, Frank must decide whether to stay true to his principles or to give in to the temptation of wealth and power. The play explores themes of morality, integrity, and the corrupting influence of money. It is a thought-provoking work that continues to resonate with audiences today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
