Benefit for Harry.
Prior Herald—Having noticed in a late issue of your paper that benefits were in order for managers of our different places of amusement. Manager Garwood and Manager Burroughs' have been announced in your columns, but there is still one more who has officiated strongly as a caterer for amusement seekers of our city for the past four years, and as a lover of good amusement and being personally acquainted with the gentleman, I don't think that he should be slighted by the frequenters of amusement resorts. The gentleman in question is Harry Wood, the genial business and stage manager for William B. Smith of Smith's opera house, and having known the gentleman thoroughly, as well as the bevy of brothers who surround him, think it nothing but just that he should name a day and date for such an affair, and we are sure it will be a benefit never to be forgotten. Go in, Harry, and we'll help you.
Yours,
A FRIEND.
