Review: New-York Times, 23 February 1863, 2.
“The storm king’s fiercest blast and driving storm could not prevent the assemblage of a goodly company. . . . A large volunteer chorus, from the New-York Harmonic Society, was present, and, under the direction of J.C. Devoy, Esq., agreeably interspersed the exercises with patriotic airs, M. Carrington, Esq., President of the Society, presiding at the organ.”
