Review: New York Clipper, 02 April 1864, 403.
“Mr. P.B. Isaacs, well known as a violinist and music composer, for a long time connected with Bryant’s, and at present with Wood’s Minstrels, has just composed a couple of new pieces of music called ‘Maggie Moore’ and ‘Perished Hopes,’ which have been sung by Mr. Henry, of Wood’s troupe, and received with much favor. Mr. Isaacs’ first attempt in this line, ‘Brothers Fainting at the Door,’ became quite a favorite here, especially with the ladies.”

“Perhaps one of the most affecting and touching plays ever placed upon the public stage is that of ‘Gisippius, the Roman Father. . . . Truly there is still much left in the world to admire and enjoy, despite the ravages of ‘war’s desolation.’”
