Balto 31st Mar 1852
My Dr Sir
Your valued favor of the 29th inst at hand yesterday was discussed at our Dinner Table, when Mrs C. Frances, and Andrew wtre were all gratified to learn that you enjoy'd at least as good health as when here, all beg to reciprocate your good wishes for many returns of the approaching holidays, hoping that ere another Passover shall come round, you will be able to introduce them to Mrs. Leeser.
I would 'twere in my power to give you any specific information relative to the probability of a vessel sailing hence for Kingston after Hebrew, in a general way those vessels sail without advertisement and without notice and if you enquire of the consignees, the general answer is, "she is bound for the W. Indies" I shall try and keep on the look out however,

and endeavor to inform you, meanwhile however I would advise you by all means to write to Mr. Abm. Lazarus at New York (formerly of Kingston) who would be much more likely to procure a passage from New York, and at lower rates too than from here besides which he might possibly be of service to them otherwise having a vast family connexion throughout the Island.
Excuse haste and believe me
Yours most Truly
E. P. Cohen
