“Unusual Exertions were made by Bryant’s Minstrels to please their patrons during the past week. Unsworth and Eugene, besides performing their specialties, did some excellent burlesque acting in the chief characters of ‘Medea.’ Dan Bryant and Nelse Seymour evoked much laughter in a comic bajo scene called ‘Will He Never Drop?’ Karl Steele performed a difficult solo up on the violoncello; the burlesque of ‘Dr. Colton’s Laughing Gas’ was revived; and the first part was freshened with ‘Home by the Sea,’ sung by J. W. Lamont; ‘Bonnie Jean,’ by W. Raymond; and ‘Killarney,’ by William Dwyer. Otherwise the programme remained unchanged.”
