Singing.
Jimmie Hussey, assisted by William Worsley, closed the show. The audience would not let Hussey proceed with the latter portion of his act until he had sung practically his entire repertoire of songs during it. After he had completed about six numbers they were willing to let up. At the finish there weren't many bows, but this was because the audience knew that had forced the comedian to deliver all that he had during the run of the act.
