Miss Nahar's rendition of the "Chariot Race," from "Ben Hur," was a revelation, and too much cannot be said in praise of it. With a clear, resonant voice, full of fire and dramatic action, she electrified her hearers and held them spell-bound to the end. She has a fine voice, and an earnest and expressive face.—The Boston Pilot.

Miss Nahar has won for herself the title of "Boston's favorite elocutionist."—Boston Advocate.
Her art is no art, but nature itself. She is both elocutionist and avtress.—Newport (R. I.) Daily News.
Miss Ednorah Nahar, in her dramatic readings of the "Sioux Chief's Daughter, "made a strong hit, and her two encore pieces showed a versatility rareh' seen.—Halifax (N. B. ) Morning Herald.
As a dramatic reader Miss Nahar has few equals. Of her readings we can say nothing but words of praise.—St. John (N. B.) Globe.
Miss Nahar as an elocutionist is superb. Her voice is well modulated, her enunciation is very clear and distinct, and she possesses perfect control over her vocal organs. Her recitation of the "Organ Builder" and the "Pilot's Story" were pathetic, while the curse scene of "Leah, the Forsaken," was a piece of stage work hard to be beaten. Miss Nahar's humorous pieces took the house by storm. "Aunt Jemima's Courtship" and "The Lords of Creation" were charming, while the rich Irish brogue she brought out in her rendition of "Low Back Car" was perfection itself.—Danville Daily Register (Dem.).
Miss Nahar is an elocutionist of rare ability and power. Her diction is clear and her gestures full of grace. Her selections are the best. It is not saying too much of her to say she reminds one very much in her stage movements and easy manners of Modjeska.—Greensboro North State.
Miss Nahar's appearance here was a success in every particular. She made herself a favorite in her first piece, "The Pilot's Story," and the enthusiasm kept up during the entire readings. Her manner is decidedly easy and graceful on the stage. In the curse scene from "Leah" she not only sustained her reputation as a clear reader, but gave evidence of considerable histrionic power—Washington Correspondent of New York Age.
