Excerpt from Eulogies
Early in 1847 he went to Milwaukee and there managed a theater for a time. I He ascertained that a canal convention - that was an age of canals - was to be held at Chicago in July of that year, 1847. It occurred to Manager rice to seize the occasion and turn it to account, and with such capital and credit as he could command he went to Chicago and put up a wooden theater on Randolph street between Dearborn and State streets. He had calculated rightly; the canal convention brought a large number of strangers to the city, and the theater made money rapidly until it burned down.
