Review: New York Herald, 20 November 1868, 10.

Two After Dark matinees will be given tomorrow—one at Niblo’s and one at the Bowery.  This piece is attracting large audiences with its railroad scene, which is the best ever produced on the stage in the country.  It is so excellent that the audience screams with delight and fright.
