“We have now four companies of minstrels in New York – viz Wood’s, Bryants’, Christy’s and Campbell’s – all doing an excellent business.”

“You may talk of your tragedies and tragedians, but if you have not seen the tragedy of ‘Othello’ as enacted at Wood’s Minstrels, you have missed the greatest of them all. Frank Brower’s Othello is a rare piece of acting, and draws tears of ‘lafture’ from stout-hearted men and pitying women. . . . Oh! It’s a killing performance. ‘Othello is on this week, and we presume that Wood’s elegant hall will have another run of large audiences.”
