“Miss Kellogg appeared at the matinée on Saturday in a character which might almost have been created for her, that of Amina, in ‘La Sonnambula.’ A very large audience welcomed her reappearance, and the performance as a whole was an agreeable one, though it offered no salient points for comment. Signor Errani and Signor Coletti were respectively the tenor and the bass. They are trusty veterans, upon whom criticism is unnecessary.”
