Phil 4th. Septr 1850
Dear Sir
I presume that you have been already informed that the cong at their late meeting came to no action in regard to a Hazan. I understand that Mr Hart intended calling a special meeting on the subject.
The bye law was rejected by a vote of 20 to 8. I will give you the name (sub rosa) of those who voted in favour of it, for perhaps some might not wish to be disgraced (!) by its being known that they were in the minority. Mess Wm. Florence, Mr Carffran, Mr Nathans, Mr D. Cohen, DHSolis, S. Solis, D. Pesoa and Mr. Israel or Mr. Lyons I do not recollect which. Some who I thought would have voted for it, did not, so all hoped of its passing, is now at an end. We shall expect you to stop and dine with us during the festivals when not specially engaged.
Yours truly
S Solis
They have done me the honor of appointing me Hatan Torah in conjunction with Mr. Levi or Arnold. - Identifier
