Review: New York Clipper, 17 December 1870, 294.

“Bryants’ new opera house has been crowded every evening during the past week. Mr. J. W. McAndrews, an excellent artist, who joined Bryants’ Minstrels the past week, has become a great favorite. Dan Bryant, Nelse Seymour, Dave Reed and Little Mac are all warmly welcomed each evening.”
