...Murdoch is an improvement on Mr. Wheelock, and his efforts were very satisfactory. Mr. Aldrich made a good Jacques, and spoke the lines with appreciation. It is a pity that the gentleman who played the Banished Duke could not have been banished from the stage as well as from his dukedom...
...good deal of profanity in his part, it is needless to say that he created a very favorable sentiment in the galleries. Messrs.

This fact seems to substantiate a prevailing opinion that the demand for such instruction in this country is not very great...
