2065 - I, Apr. 29:4/2 - The Academy of Music held a crowded house last
night to hear the play, FANCHON THE CRICKET, and to see Maggie Mitchell
as "Little Fadet." Her delineation of character is most bewitching. Mr.
Ellsler plays "Father Barbeaud" with perfection. Mr. McCollom's "Landry"
and Mr. Lewis' "Didier" are more than comical. (3)

2118 - L June 30:4/4, 5 - At the Academy of Music, Mrs. Bradshaw's benefit
the TICKET OF LEAVE MAN is meeting with tremendous success. A crowded
house greeted its third rendition, and delight was expressed at the manner
in which it was put upon the stage. Mr. McCollom as "Robert Brierly" ex-
cels himself in the fidelity of conception and spiritedness of rendition.
Mr. Ellsler's "John Ilawkshaw" displays a suppressed but intense power. Mr.
Lewis, as "Sam Willoughby" is very natural and very funny. (6)
