The Daily Dispatch: August 31, 1861., [Electronic resource], Death of Miss Hayes, the "Irish Nightingale." (search)
professional man, whom she subsequently married. She afterwards visited California, the Sandwich Islands, Australia and India, returning to London, where she appeared at Convent Garden, in 1855. At a little later period her husband died. Her voice was a soprano of great compass and strength, very smooth, and remarkably flexible. In opera her most successful roles were Lucia, in "Luciadi Lammermoor," and Linda, in "Linda di Chamouni." She appeared occasionally in English Opera with Miss Novello, where her usual success attended her. In the judgment of some, however, she was better in concert than on the stage, and certainly in the national melodies of her country Miss Hayes had no rival. The news which brings us the sad intelligence of her death does not tell us where it occurred; though it was, most probably, in England or Ireland--in her own sorrowful land perhaps, where she first drew inspiration from the melting strains of a Carolan, and the touching verses of a Moore.
