He made his first New York appearance at the American Theatre, and remained there one year. In May, 1866, he joined Boyce and Mudge’s Minstrels; subsequently appearing with Sam Sharpley’s, and later with Joseph Trowbridge, he had the Bloodgood and Trowbridge’s Minstrels; their season ended July 16, 1871; Mr. Bloodgood then taking his own show, with which he traveled intermittently for several seasons. In 1869 he also was associated with Delehanty, Hengler and Bloodgood’s Minstrels. Mr. Bloodgood was without exception the most pronounced favorite that ever played the old Howard Athenæum in Boston; he was in the stock there at various times, covering a period of several years. About 1881 he wrote and appeared in the play, “Hix’s Fix,” sharing the lead with W. A. Mestayer; the piece was afterwards called “Wanted, A Partner.” Mr. Bloodgood married Helene Smith, the danseuse, about 1864; they were divorced in the spring of 1867; and on January 20, 1870, in Boston, he married Clara Gettis, also a dancer. It was not until about three years later that he found connubial blessedness, when he married Lisle Riddell, with whom he lived most happily the balance of his life.

Harry Bloodgood was born in Savannah, Georgia, March 31, 1845; he died in N. Conway, N. H., June 12, 1886. LUCIUS M. PHELPS, of the well-known song and dance team of Stiles and Phelps, also Armstrong, Stiles and Phelps, had been out of the profession about four years prior to his death, which occurred in Springfield, Mass., about August, 1876. He had been with Unsworth’s Minstrels in 1871; Moran and Dixey’s in 1872, and also with the companies of Skiff and Gaylord, Carncross and Dixey, and Hooley’s. NED FOX was a brother of Jim Fox, of Goss and Fox, and was very well known during his comparatively brief career, as a comedian of more than ordinary merit. After his death, the following lines by Billy Devere, were dedicated to his (Fox’s) widow: “Another old-timer gone they said. As I came to the green-room door to-night; Another “old pard” has passed away To that beauteous land of joy and light-- Buoyed aloft by a Saviour’s love, Searching the home of the good and true As Noah from the Ark sent the carrier dove Out of the old world into the new.”
