Review: New York Clipper, 09 November 1872, 254.

“Annie Hindle then sang several songs with rapid changes of costumes, which were fully up to her standard of excellence.” “Charles Henry sang a pleasing ballad.” “Miss Alice Sommers, whose performance of songs and dances we have often reviewed, gave much satisfaction, and was several times re-called.”
