12 min. in 1—Singer of the coon songs and a joke-smith, did not go very strong and came off after 8 minutes. This was due to the fact that he was closing a 5-hour show, not of lack of ability, for I think he would make good if he was put on before a fair sized audience. I notified him that he would have to make good his time or else quit, which he promised to do so.
