"One of the most interesting occurrences of the season at Worthington, Mass., was the initial presentation last week of 'Charley's Country Cousin,' the author's latest comedy. The play was enthusiastically received. There were some charming scenes between 'Charley' and his 'Country Cousin,' especially that over the telephone, and some very natural and spicy dialogue between Mr. and Mrs. Carleton over the arrangements for an afternoon 'At Home.' Bridget's various deductions and surprises kept the audience constantly laughing whenever she appeared."—Hampshire Gazette.
"Miss Rice has in the comedy, 'Charley's Country Cousin,' added another to her list of delightful plays. The author is not only very well known in this city socially, but also as a writer of clever and original comedies, her 'Mrs. Bagg's Bargain Day,' which was presented several times last season, meeting with the greatest favor. This latest play met a most appreciative audience at every production. There were enthusiastic calls for the author both evenings."—Albany Argus.
"'Charley's Country Cousin' was a great success here and we did not consider it at all hard to give. We had two persons for Topsy and counterpart and each did a monologue in the place where she was supposed to be rehearsing. Topsy also did a colored song very well. All who heard the play said it was the best we had had of the short ones and remarkably well suited to any entertainment given under the auspices of the church."—Miss Elisabeth G. Day, Colchester, Conn.
