The Massacre of Jerusalem, in which the author, a Mr Morris Phillips, who has recently arrived from London, makes his first appearance in this colony ... The first piece which ... is especially licensed for the occasion, has never yet been published'. The Massacre of Jerusalem is listed first in the advertisements for the benefit.
