Review: New-York Daily Tribune, 01 March 1871, 4.

“...terminates with a festival scene, in which Miss Alice Harrison, arrayed in peasant dress, which is very becoming to her, sings the appropriate song of ‘Kaiser, don’t you want to buy a dorg?’ After this, Miss Atherton executes a clog dance. Then there are fire-works.”
