     “The Olympic closed on the 8th, ‘Jessie Brown’ having failed to awaken any enthusiasm, or draw very largely.  The great success of the season at this house was the ‘Sleeping Beauty,’ which enjoyed a long run of prosperity, and filled the breast of the manager with lively emotions and her pockets with cheerful greenbacks.”
