Charleston 9th of December 1852
Mr. Isaac Leeser;
Dear Sir;
Encouraged by the following sentence on the 356th page of the Occident of October last. “Of course we give only Mr. M's own statements, and should there be any mistake, we will cheerfully insert a reply; our only object being to do justice in the premises, and to charge no one with wrong-doing, without the fullest proof.” I therefore send you this article to be pub=lished in the Occident in reply to one of Mr. Mar=cussohn of October last; and I feel confident, that you will do us the favour and the justice, that you to fulfill a promise made so public; all we ask is justice & no more. I do not wish, unless compelled, to say or write any more about this matter, but desire to live in harmony & peace.
However should you refuse to publish this communication, though I have not the slightest idea that you will, for you love justice as well as myself, I shall be necessitated to vindicate the conduct of the Jewish mission society, in reference to this matter, not only in the Jewish Chronicle but also in the public journals of this & other cities where Jews are, & our mission society is represented.
Yours very sincerely
G. D. Bernheim
