Cast, songs. “[L]ast night but one of the distinguished YOUNG IRISH COMEDIAN.”
“Dan Bryant closed on August 26th, what may be considered, one of the most successful engagements we can charge ourselves with remembering in this city for the last ten years. We never witnessed more hearty, genuine, spontaneous applause and laughter, than he elicited uniformly from his audiences, and which increased nightly as the actor became more acquainted with his powers. During his engagement he has carried the audiences laughing with and at him. His rollicking humor has helped largely to thin down the weekly bills of mortality of our city. In the line of Irish character, he has gained a first class position. He has labored with studious zeal in his profession. For his farewell benefit on the 25th, he appeared for the first time as General Pepper in the ‘White Horse of the Peppers,’ which is said to have been a very clever performance.”
