The Tagesanzeiger text of Bohemia 21/5/1850 reported that on 22nd May in the evening in the Žofín Hall would take place a dance entertainment [Tanzunterhaltung] for the benefit of the Institute for Infants at Hrádek.
More detailed information about this dance entertainment appeared in a report published in the Lokalzeitung section of Bohemia 24/5/1850. This related that the day before yesterday [22nd May], a ‘Beseda’ [the term being printed in latin text and not in fraktur] was given on Žofín Island, the profit from which was destined for the Institute for Infants in Hrádek. The event gained ‘not a numerous attendance’ because the ‘afternoon thunderstorm and the persistant rain scared the dance-lovers away, and also diminished the receipts.’
