Book Description
Excerpt from Exhibition; Prints, Playbills, Advertisements, and Autograph Letters to Illustrate the History of the Boston Stage From 1791 to 1825: From the Collection of Mr. Robert Gould Shaw, April 20 to April 25, 1914 Maiden name Ellen Westray, born at Bath, England, 1777. She became Mrs. John Darley in 1801, and, with the exception of a season or two at Boston, remained on the New York stage, enjoying unbounded favor, till she removed to Philadelphia in 1819, where she continued until her retirement, about the year 1832, playing once, during that period a brilliant star engagement at the Chatham Garden Theatre, New York. Her greatest excellence was found in the gentler heroines of tragedy, or the pathetic characters of the domestic drama. As a vocalist, she could warble the music of her day with great sweetness and expression. She died in Philadelphia in 1848, at the age of 69, as deeply regretted as she had been throughout life respected and admired.
