Review: New York Clipper, 25 March 1871, 406.

“Brian O’Lynn sings well and won the favor of the audience. Mlle. Louis has evidently practiced long and assiduously to arrive at that degree of excellence which her performance exhibited. Miss Alice Somers is a favorite at this house, having often played brief engagements here. She was well received and responded to two or three encores.” “Tony Pastor sang two or three new comic songs and several old ones, all of which were favorably received.”
