(N.H.) Daily Democrat," Dec. 19, 1873, said,--

"The concert given in the City Hall last evening by Miss
Nellie Brown, assisted by Misses Gray and Bracket and the
Amphion Glee Club of Haverhill, Mass., was a success....
Miss Brown was very warmly greeted, and surprised all with
the ease and grace of her appearance, the richness of her
voice, and the fine rendering of her music. She was
enthusiastically encored."

"The Dover Enquirer," Sept. 7, 1876, said,--

"The organ and vocal concert at the new Methodist-Episcopal
church on Tuesday evening was one of the finest ever given
in Dover.... Dover's favorite, Miss Nellie E. Brown, was as
warmly greeted as ever, sang most charmingly, and was loudly
encored."

"The Dover Democrat," Sept. 6, 1876, said,--

"It [the concert] was a grand and complete success.... One
little incident, or intended incident, was omitted at the
concert. An elegant basket of flowers was sent by the
friends of Miss Nellie Brown at Haverhill, for presentation
to her at the close of her singing; but the express folks
failed to deliver it in season. It was too bad; but Miss
Brown and her numerous friends appreciate the good-will of
the Haverhill people all the same. It was intended as a
pretty tribute to one of the best singers in New England;
and, so far as the act itself was concerned, it stands just
as well as though the presentation had taken place."

Miss Brown has sung in quite a number of the larger towns and cities
of Massachusetts, in which State she is scarcely less a favorite than
in New Hampshire. She has appeared at concerts in company with some of
the most eminent artists of the country (such as, for instance,
Professor Eugene Thayer, J.F. Rudolphsen, Myron W. Whitney, Mrs. Julia
Houston West, Mrs. H.M. Smith, and others), and always with fine
success. In her own city and state she enjoys a popularity unequalled
by any other cantatrice, her beautiful voice and many excellent traits
of character winning her the warmest esteem of all. The people of
Dover are very proud of her, and greatly delighted that one of their
number is received with such marks of enthusiastic favor in other
States. The Dover papers always readily record these triumphs, and
proudly speak of her as "our prima donna."
