Review: New York Clipper, 05 December 1863, 267.

“’I Am All There’ is all there no longer, Mrs. Wood withdrawing her burlesque on the ‘Duke’s Motto’ on the 28th ult.  It has not had an extraordinary success here, and that is why it is shelved.  We cannot let the opportunity pass without saying a few words in praise of the monkey, whose performances, for a monkey, were certainly very creditable, and much appreciated.  Farewell, monkey.”
