New York, Sept. 28, 1854
Rev Mr. I. Leeser
You are probably in receipt of the Ethrogim you ordered and which I dis-patched yesterday. In order to make it safer I packed both together and paid no charges, for you can add those to my account. “One who begins a good deed is supposed to finish it” I also at once attended to your second order from St. Louis, and sent two Ethrogim and Lullabim to President Lotz, so that they might arrive betimes
Wishing you a happy year
Your friend,
Nathan Ottinger
The Ethrogim are very scarce. None others have arrived here as yet except to me and Mr. Nusbaum, and even these are almost all disposed of.
