HBH 1892 May 6 SNAZELLE and GOURLAY

A correspondent at Wellington writes:

Mr SNAZELLE opened here on Saturday evening to a full house. The entertainment of its kind is first-class. The programme opened with a selection of Scottish airs on organ, piano and bells.

This in itself was something out of the common, and was well received. The effect was quite charming, but it would take more space than you could possibly spare to go over the various items.

Suffice to say that never before in WELLINGTON have we had such lovely scenes shown to us illustrating the different sketches, songs, &c.

Mr SNAZELLE is heard to great advantage in singing "Nazareth," "Simon the Cellarer," &c., and his funny tales are inimitable.

Mr GOURLAY deserves credit for the energetic manner in which he has ushered Mr SNAZELLE.
