Review: New York Clipper, 09 March 1867, 382, 2d col., middle.

“…He [Barney] dresses well, sings a capital Irish song, and his reels and jigs are heartily applauded. Mrs. Williams is a clever comedienne and representative of the extravagant Yankee Gal. She possesses all the advantages of a beautiful personnel, a fine voice, and perfect self-possession and is perfectly at home on the stage.”
