“Buckley’s Serenaders closed their present season at San Francisco Hall on Saturday evening, August 13th, having performed five consecutive weeks, with a success not to have been anticipated at such a warm season of the year as it has proved. Many of the artists have been changed from time to time, a record of which has appeared in our columns. With their departure our city is left without a minstrel band.”
