New Yorker Yiddishen Tzeitung, New York: 1888.
Jacob Joseph (1848-1902) studied at the Yeshiva of Volozhin, before his appointment as Rabbi of Vilna in 1883. In 1888 he was called to the United States to assume the newly created post of Chief Rabbi of the Orthodox Congregations of Russian Jews in New York City. Due to the tragedy of his experiences at the hands of New York Jewry, he would be the first and the last "Rav Hakollel" - Chief Rabbi of New York. See A.J. Karp, AJHSP vol. XLIV pp.129-98).
