FREDERIC SULLIVAN
OCCASIONAL NOTES. The Musical World 1877 February

MR FREDERIC
SULLIVAN, brother of Mr. Arthur Sullivan, died last
week, aged thirty-nine. It will be hard to meet with a worthy substitute
for the gentleman as the Judge in Trial by Jury. Mr Sullivan, before
he took to the stage, was by profession an architect. He is deeply regretted,
not only by his family, but by the numerous friends attracted to him through
his amiable manners and genial, charming disposition – as an actor, and,
indeed, as a lyric artist, he was fast rising into eminence and popularity.
