To the President and members of the
K. K. M. I. of Philadelphia.
Gentlemen.
It is as you all know, a laudable feeling, to be in possession of the good opinion of our fellow-beings; how much more must this be the case with a person who has held a public trust, to be assured that he has acted so as to elicit the approbation of his constituents. It has now happened, that up to this day I have not been honoured with a certificate from your honourable body such as I think my long public services merit; I would therefore be indebted to you to obtain at the earliest possible moment such an expression of your kind opinion as I could exhibit to all the world as the evidence that my long public services as the minister of your congregation have met with your approbation.
Respe S.
