“Mr. and Mrs. Florence still continue to delight crowded houses at this establishment in Tom Taylor’s best play, ‘The Ticket-of-Leave Man.’  The cast in this piece is entirely unexceptional, and justifies the decision of the management in not changing it according to the published request of many of the patrons.”
