Date:
“Dickens’ Characters”: 26 min. F.S. 2 shows.  This man is a great artist and his act is very high-class and interesting.  Each impersonation of Dickens’ characters seemed to be very life-like and adhered to the traditions of the novelists’ favourite illustrations.  The MacCawber and the Miser were particularly strong.  Think that he will draw business with the orchestra crowd.  Act a little over the heads of the gallery, but wins big with the better class of patrons.  Press very enthusiastic this morning.
