Grantmore's Concert at Boston Theatre Delights Large Audience

The Boston Theatre hosted Grantmore's concert last evening with a large, enthusiastic crowd. The program pleased all, encores followed solo numbers, and the grand regimental band led by Mr Gilmore showed remarkable precision. Emma C. Thursby sang Messiah arias to acclaim. Arbuckle drew calls with cornet fantasies and standard tunes. The event proved profitable for organizers.
