Review: New York Herald, 12 January 1867.

“Should the house, jammed to the utmost, be taken as a proof of the assertion that the German public does not appreciate Goethe, the letter would fall entirely to the ground. But there can be no doubt it was Dawison whose name drew this immense audience, the public being anxious to see a great actor in his great role.”
