“[T]he Park Cornet Band will play on the lake to-day, from 3:30 o’clock until 6:30 o’clock P.M.”
“Yesterday . . . we were present at a concert in the air, and another on the water. The concert in the air consisted of the well known tune John Brown, and other popular melodies played by four musicians in the car of Professor Lowe’s balloon, when at an elevation of some eight hundred feet. The concert on the water was the usual musical entertainment given by Dodworth’s concert band, on the upper lake of the park. These concerts are becoming almost as popular as those given on Saturday, and the one of yesterday was listened to by a very large and very respectable concourse of people.”
