New York June 8th 1859
Revd Isaac Leeser
Philadelphia
Dear Sir
You are aware I suppose that my pros-pects of obtaining the situation in Baltimore are for the present frustrated. By the last letter I received from them I have been informed that the funds raised by annual subscription is found to be insufficient to cover the necessary expenses and the meeting therefore resolved for performing their service and not to engage a minister until they shall be better enabled to do so. Mr. Carvalho will meanwhile act as Hazan.
It is now my intention to apply for the vacant office by the congregation Sheareth Israel Charleston, and would for that purpose beg your kindness to use your influence in my favor on that congregation. If you can, without infringing upon either conscience or pleasure; give me a recommending certificate stating my ability and character I shall be greatly obliged to you and remain as ever
Yours truly
Mr de Solla
