“An agreeable evening’s entertainment is afforded at ‘Pilgrim Hall’ (late Dr. Cheever’s Church).  A series of paintings illustrating scenes in ‘Pilgrim’s Progress’ is exhibited with the occasional introduction of appropriate music by a quartette led by Philip Phillips.  This is designed to be a permanent feature among city amusements, the object being to afford a place of resort where positively good influences may be combined with an attractive entertainment.”
