Fremantle Lunatic Asylum Entertainment

On Friday the Stanley Opera Company proceeded to Fremantle, where they gave a gratuitous entertainment to the afflicted inmates of the Lunatic Asylum. The performance, which consisted of singing, dancing, and character representations was immensely enjoyed by the unfortunate spectators, who warmly evinced their thanks for the delightful treat Mr. Stanley's generous kindness had afforded them. This is the first time such a pleasant break has occurred in the depressing monotony of the patients' ordinary daily routine of life for about 8 years.

Mr. Harry Stanley's talented Opera Bouffe troupe visited Fremantle yesterday, for the purpose of giving their popular variety entertainment to the inmates of the Lunatic Asylum. From what hear, some of the unfortunate inmates appeared to be much interested, but upon many of their countenances a vacant, unmeaning look appeared, devoid of understanding, and seemed to take but little interest in the performance. Mr. Stanley, however,is to be commended for his kind and thoughtful consideration, and the trouble, to think nothing of the expense he has been under.
