Citations
1)
“Third Month . . . [D]elightful selections of music under the direction of HARVEY B. DODWORTH”
6)
“The summer months are never highly favorable to operatic and dramatic entertainments; but the lull this season is unusually noticeable. Musical affairs are temporarily dead, and most of the theatres are closed. At Niblo’s, however, the ‘Duke’s Motto’ is still received with great favor.”
