“. . . Miss Olivia Rand, a charming comedienne, sustained the role of Ovoo, a mischievous Chinese damsel, making a very bewitching exponent of Celestial feminity, and was warmly applauded throughout the piece in her efforts to please. She possesses an excellent voice, and during the evening sung several ballads, which were invariably redemanded. . . “
