“Messrs. Fulton and Maeder’s new play of ‘Nobody’s Daughter’ has drawn good houses and given general satisfaction for the past two weeks at the New York Theatre, but to-night emigrates to Banvard’s Museum.  Such an improvement on the ordinary entertainments given at this establishment ought to call out a largely increased patronage.”

Review: New York Clipper, 24 August 1867, 154, 3d col., middle.

“Owing to the management having entered into previous engagements, ‘Nobody’s Daughter’ had to be withdrawn from the boards of the New York Theatre in the height of its popularity, and transferred to the parental care of the management of Banvard’s Museum, where it was presented on the 12th, with Kate Reignolds in her original role, and John Albaugh as the detective.  It was very well received by the audience, and kept the boards all last week, and is on for the present week.  Business had been very bad at Banvard’s but ‘Nobody’s Daughter’ made a healthful change in the state of things, and good houses were the order of the night as well as at the matinee.”
