Edmonds and Lee

Location:
Theater:
Date:
Type:
On at 5.08, 12 min, in 1, 3 shows. I was assured by the agent who booked this act with me that Edmonds was again working with his wife, and that the act was all right in every way. When they went on this afternoon I noticed the woman was very bad indeed, so I went back and had a talk with Edmonds. The result of this was that I gave him the alternative of working alone for $50, or being cancelled on the spot. He decided to work alone and will be alright for the remainder of the week, for he is good performer himself, singing darky songs in an excellent manner.
