In a singing act. This act introduces Mr. Lawlor and his two daughters. The girls are very young, I should think about 14 or 15 years of age, and have not got the idea of making up to any great extent, but they sing quite prettily and have considerable of that “give-us-your-kind-applause” material, which is always bound to go. After booking them I heard that they were not very good, and so held back the contract until I could see them. Much to my surprise, in one of the hardest places on the bill, they went very nicely and got lots of applause. I prefer to see them again before I decide on the salary. 18 minutes; open full stage, close in one.
