Review: New York Clipper, 15 August 1874, 158.

“…[the above performers] were added to the forces at Tony Pastor’s during the past week, when the attendance was very large. The season closed on Aug. 8, and the house will remain closed until the commencement of the regular Fall and Winter season, on or about Aug. 24.”
