The Daily Dispatch: December 1, 1864., [Electronic resource], article 2 (search)
sful lawyer, smart but unscrupulous, ready to take up the worst cases, and noted for always carrying his clients through. On entering the parlors, I was surprised to find in the charming and graceful lady who received us the dramatic friend and confidant of Jane Shore, whose talent had so impressed me at the Dorrance Street Theatre. Mrs. Butler was a young lady of Dracutt, who, fascinated by the stage, and conscious of dramatic power, had obtained an engagement at one of the Boston theatres, and who was for about two years earnestly devoted to her profession, when Mr. Benjamin Butler proffered his heart and hand, and won her back to domestic life. I found that she still loved the art, and prevailed on her to read to me some of her favorite passages in Shakespeare. She read, I remember, the prison scene in 'Measure for Measure' with a passionate pathos that made me half regret that the 'smart Lowell lawyer' had won her away from Melpomene and all her tragic glooms and splendors."
