Review: New York Herald, 16 May 1872, 6.

“Of the other performers who appear in the olio the character vocalism of Miss Blanche Selwyn, the ballad singing of Clara Fisher and O’Reardon’s musical performances on tumblers are the most interesting, while the rest are to be credited with an earnest attempt to render their performances amusing.”
