In New York late in 1842 four men "Dan" Emmett, Frank Brower, "Billy" Whitlock, and "Dick" Pelham practiced together with fiddle and banjo, "bones" and tambourine, and thus was born the first company, the "Virginia Minstrels," which made its formal debut in New York February 17, 1843.
Brand Whitlock, our minister to Belgium, the government there was willing to give me credentials, but on the day I was to receive them the government moved to Antwerp. Then the Germans entered Brussels, and, as no one could foresee that Belgium would heroically continue fighting, on the chance the Germans would besiege Paris, I planned to go to that city.

Where's a knife?" "You'll find one in that fellow's belt," said Whitlock, pointing to one of the mutineers.
