John F. Leonard

Location:
Theater:
Date:
GHR – In an Irish comedy act. I played Mr. Leonard here this week because my arrangements with him were for a New York appearance, the balance of the circuit to depend upon his success here. So as a matter of justice I had to let him go to New York this week. I thoroughly agree with the Boston criticism that the act is not very strong. I suppose he went a little better here than he did in Boston, but it is not a particularly heavy act at that. 13 minutes in one.
