 From the Bethlehem (Pa.) Times Un- ion: "The quartet singing was superb, IHe NOlCeS DlclulllS SO SW6eliy anu udI moniously that the audience followed them with bated breath until the song was ended. Round after round of ap- plause greeted the sweet singers. It would be hard, indeed, to tell which one of the quartet numbers was the best. The old melodies, "Comin' Thro' the Rye" and "Old Uncle Ned' were perhaps enjoyed as much as any. "The Lost Chord" was also loudly applauded. Augusta (Me) Journal: "The recitals by MT. Glilley were received with bursts of spontaneous applause. His pathos was as sympathetic as his humor was convulsing, and he was repeatedly re- called for encores. He is certainly a thorough artist. His facial expression is most versatile and suggestive, and his diaelct work has seldom if ever been excelled in this city"
