Review: New-York Times, 08 May 1865.

     “There seems to be no limit to the popularity of Maggie Mitchell and no end to the run of ‘Fanchon.’  The lady and the play are once more at Niblo’s, and that handsome establishment is filled to its greatest capacity.  Beyond putting the fact on record, it is surely unnecessary to say a word more.”
