Monarchs of Minstrelsy, from "Daddy" Rice to date (pg352):

"Frank Morrell, the 'California Boy,' made his first appearance as a boy soprano with Cleveland's Minstrels in Los Angeles, CA.
This was followed by an engagement with Selle's Bros. Circus with whom he went to Australia.

Returning to his native heath he next appeared at the Bella Union Theatre in San Francisco, subsequently playing an engagement
with Haverly's Minstrels in the same... city.

Later, Mr. Morrell appeared with success in several burlesque and farcical attractions, and at various times was of the vaudeville
teams of Morrell and Evans and Morrell and Deely.

After a five-year tour of England and Africa he returned to the United States and in 1906 formed one of the original members of
"That Quartette," and continued with them until 1908..."

Reviews for That Quartet from Variety (1908-09):

Hammerstein's:

"That" Quartet, with its new member, William Redmond, who is the lyric tenor, replacing Frank Morrell with the singing four, made its local reappearance on Mon-
day at Hammerstein's, garbed in the very latest cut of evening dress, with opera bats. Each excellent voice sounded fresh and full. The boys, both singly and in concert, just ripped it into them. Most of the attention was given to Mr. Redmond, who sang "Childhood" as a solo. He has a deliriously sweet voice. Although the selection has but one or two opportunities for a high range, Mr. Redmond rose easily with the melody, and was rapturously applauded. Jones in his unparalelled "coon" baritone sang "Don't Go 'Way"; Sylvester's robust tenor solo, "If I Had a Pal Like You," was sung with fine expression, and Pringle, with his magnificent bass, made a departure by rendering "If Dreams Come True." It is away from the usual bass song, and the house seemed to appreciate this as well as the singing. The concerted number were lively medleys, and the singing has never sounded better. "That" Quartet, with Redmond (of pleasing appearance), as exactly where it was before, the best straight singing act on the stage.
