New York, 1895
The Ancient Order of Hibernians gave a pleasant entertainment at the Opera House on Wednesday evening. Hon. John F. Finnerty, of Chicago, lectured on "The Irish Race at Home and Abroad." He is an orator of the first rank and everybody was pleased with his remarks. Mr. M. J. Murphy sang a number of old country songs with fine effect. Local talent added materially to the evening's pleasure. There was a recitation by Edward Roach, a soprano solo by Miss L. Fox, and a solo by Mrs. William J. Murray.
