Front and back book covers used to display clippings regarding the amateur performance of Richelieu; Or the Conspiracy at the Academy of Music in Charleston featuring performances by Helen and Israel Lee Ottolengui. The play was organized by the B'Nai Brith, or the Sons of the Covenant, which was a charitable organization seeking funds to establish an orphan asylum. The inside right cover also displays a clipping from The News and Courier commenting on the performance of Miss Helen Ottolengui in The Burglar at the Grand Opera House.
