Review: New York Clipper, 18 July 1868, 118.

“Alf Burnett is in the third week of his present engagement at Dodworth Hall, this city. He is assisted by Mrs. Hattie Greene and Helen Nash, the former a vocalist, the latter a reader. Mrs. Greene does not possess a pleasing voice, and what makes it still less pleasing is her trilling, which grates upon the ear, making anything but a favorable impression.”
