N. Y. Night after Yom Kippur, 1852.
Rev. I. Leeser:
Your letter in which you ask me to send you an ethrog im-mediately before the holiday, is now before me for answer. I have ful-filled your wish, and, on the eve of Yom Kippur, I delivered to the express a handsome ethrog, packed in a little box. For it, you will please credit my account ? The gentleman from Nashville, about whom you wrote to me, did not present himself and therefore, I could not sell him a Torah. Will you be good enough to recommend me further in to anyone who desires something extraordinary in the way of Torahs. Will you please transmit to me three unbound prayer books and one set of unbound Pentateuchs. In the hope that the holidays will bring you peace and good life, I wish you a happy “Yom Tov”,
Respectfully,
C. Nussbaum
As our friend, the proselyte, Mr. Gretzin, told me, the report about Marcosson is not true. He is going to stop several days in Philadelphia. Please be good enough to let me know what you know about these things. The obligation really rests upon you, for, “The mouth that condemned is the mouth that should absolve”.
