Review: New York Clipper, 23 November 1872, 270.

“Miss Hindle’s character songs met with favor. Peter Cannon sang Irish patter songs, which aroused the audience to a high state of excitement. He is one of the best vocalists of that class that has ever appeared in this city. His dialect is excellent, and his make-up grotesque.”
