Charleston Feby 8th 1851
Rev. I. Leeser
Dr Sir, I have written to Mr Saml Levy with reference to the amt. due by Augusta congregation, for a sett of Books. His reply has not been received as yet, but Mr Cohen tells me all will be right the Congn having the means to pay.
As the 15th of Feby is close at hand I enclose you the circular. I regret to say that it has received no addition of consequence since I last reported.
This has been owing to a number of causes, the principal of which was my sisters sickness. She (Sarah Ann) is just recovering slowly from a severe attack of Confluent Varioloid* with all its painful and loathsome attendants.
I have been barred from visiting in consequence of the danger of infection, and this together with my constant anxiety in regard to her condition, has prevented me from making applications for subscriptions.
Should you determine on the publication of the Books, I will do whatever I can to aid in their circulation.
Yrs &c &c
Thos J Moïse
Mother sends her regard.
She is much broken by
anxiety & fatigue, but I
hope she will speedily
improve.
