     “It is another imported drama of the Bowery school. American authors meet with little or no encouragement at this theatre. The American people are beginning to notice this fact, and if they should ignore the existence of Wallack’s Theatre, as Lester Wallack and his man Friday, Moss, ignore the existence of American dramatists, it would serve the management right.”
