Review: New-Yorker Staats-Zeitung und Herold, 22 March 1864, 8.

“The second performance of R. Benedix’s comedy, “The Foster Daughters,” took place before an overfilled house yesterday.  From the little we could see and hear of the play, positioned, as we were, in front of the door, we believe it will remain in the repertoire for quite some time.”
