Quartette at Osgood Memorial. The Ne~ London Day, speaking of the concert at Mystic given by the uartette of the Second chus=h, New ndon, on Tuw.day. says: “Every number of the programme was pleas- ing and well selected, and seldom has an audience had the pleasure of hear- ing better singing. Mrs. Merrill's clear, brilliant soprano was especially pleas- ing, and no less can be said of Mrs. Munger,who sings with a sweetly sym- thetic voice of wide range and fine ex- pression. It was more of a pleasure than ever to hear Mr. Seamans again ns his voice had gained greatly i ana clearness of tone. Mr. true tenor was a delight, and his sing- ing was sympathetic and masterly. The duet and quartette singing were full of sweet harmony and well bal- anced.” Hear this quartette at the Osgood | RMemorial Friday evening at 8 o'clock.
