The next item consisted of "Imitations and pretty general approval. The programme commenced with Illustrations," by John Sanger. Perhaps the most successful a Part Song in Canon Form, He who trusts z'nLa dz'es fa ir bUilds item in this was the imitation of several well-known actors, a castle in the air, by Eisenhofer, sung by a chorus of men's ending with an inimitable burlesque of Mr Henry Irving, in voices, and conducted by A. S. Tetley B.A. This was followed "The dream of the bilious beadle." Corney Grain's characteristics by a Pianoforte Duet consisting of the Scherzo and Trio from were also admirably caught.
