“Fra Diavolo was given to a very good and fashionable house last night. It was unexceptionably sung, all the artists doing full justice to the roles.”

“Notwithstanding the unpleasant weather, the Academy of Music was well attended last evening. The audience, in fact, was both numerous and fashionable. . . .’Fra Diavolo’ was given charmingly, with completeness of ensemble, and individual spirit on the part of separate artists. It has, unquestionably, taken its place in the repertory as a decidedly acceptable favorite.”
