Twelve months have passed since I had the interesting experience of interviewing Frances Guignard Gibbes. well-known South Carolina writer of poetic drama, when she. was a distinguished guest in Atlanta. The receipt last week of a copy of Up There," a three-act play written by this gifted southerner and published by the Mitre Press of London, recalled the pleasant February afternoon in 1931 spent with this successful writer in her apartments at the Winecoff hotel. There" was then being written and from a sketchy manuscript its author read me parts of the play which has just been published and that will doubtless be produced shortly by some theatrical manager because of its beauty and worth.

I recall that she told me she felt as if a divine inspiration had led her to write this play, the scene of which is Mont Saint Michel, that renowned shrine in France. It happened early one spring morning as I approached Mont Saint Michel," said Mrs. Gibbes. "All was blue sky, water, clouds and over the heaven pointed spires of the great abbey there hovered misty clouds and among these clouds I seemed to see one shaped like the wing of an angel." Inspired by Tradition. She confessed that perhaps her inspiration was influenced by her knowledge of the tradition associated with the historic and celebrated Mont Saint Michel.

She told me that as Gibbes is Mrs. Oscar L. Keith, of Columbia, S. wife of the professor of romance languages at the university of that state. In addition to having the distinction of being a native of the state that produced such writers as DuBose Heyward.
