Mephistopheles was splendidly sung
\nand acted. But the best voice was
\nValentine\u2019s. Miss Kellogg pleased
\nme more than ever. The scene
\nat the window was received
\nwith applause. The choruses
\nwere ever applauded. And the
\nreturn of the soldiers especially.
\nIts remarkable appropriateness
\nwas the reason. On that day
\nthe 2nd fire [?] Lovares [?] had been
\nwelcomed home to the city.
