August 8, 1863 – Mark Twain writes:
“Mr. Frank Mayo and Mrs. Julia Dean Rayne left this morning for San Francisco. The citizens tendered Mrs. Rayne a benefit on last Friday evening, at which she was presented with a small silver brick by a few of her friends. It is said that “Mr. Trench, the well-known first architect of the old Metropolitan Theatre, in San Francisco, is about to build a superb theatre in Virginia.” Now, my information is to the effect that Jo. Trench, the well-known millman of Silver City, is to build it; yet Jo. Trench and Trench the Metropolitan architect may abide in the same corpulent, good-natured carcass, for all I know. Charles Pope will be lessee and manager at the new establishment. Mr. Sutliff, of San Francisco, is about to erect a fine music hall in Virginia, to be fifty feet wide by one hundred feet long. He hopes to have it completed within the next two months.”
