Review: New York Clipper, 10 February 1872, 358.

“Brown and Dunstan performed correctly upon a number of instruments, such as the cornet, violin, double bass, toy violin, musical tea-pot and sardine box, and a duet upon cornets met with much applause. Miss Jennie Hughes sang a fresh selection of ballads, which met with much favor, and Miss Ada Wray [singer], Kathleen O’Neil, together with Burnell Runnells and sons, continued during the week.”
