Announcement: New York Clipper, 06 January 1866, 310.

     “Tony Pastor is giving an unusually interesting entertainment at his Opera House in the Bowery. . . . In the drama now performing there called the “Victim,” Laura LeClaire and John Hart have a broadsword combat, which seems to take well.”

Review: New York Clipper, 13 January 1866, 318.

     Josh Hart and Laura Leclaire have made a good hit at Tony Pastor’s Opera house, where they appeared during the past week in the ‘Victim,’ giving imitations of stars.”
