Baltimore, Novemb. 7Th 1861
Von dem Bibliotheken Committer der Jedidjah-Loge dahier bin ich beauftragt, Ihnen $1,50 als halbjährigen Pra?? preiß für „The Occident”zu senden. Das Committer hat nämlich beschlossen in Berücksichtigung der kritischen Zeiten jetzt alle priedischen Blätter nur halb? voraus zu bezahlen.
Ferner lege ich Ihren $1,50 für mich bei, da ich glaube, daß Sie den Lehrere ebenso wie Dr. Wise Ihr Blatt für die Halfte des Preißes ablassen.
Achtungsvoll & ergebenst
Jonas Goldsmith.

Baltimore, November 7th 18 1861
The Li library committee of the Jedidjah Lodge, this city, asked me, to send you $1.50 ? to cover the half yearly dues for the Occident. With regard to the hard times the committee decided to pay all periodicals only half yearly in advance.
I also enclose $1.50 for myself, because I believe that you will send your journal to teachers for half the price, same as you do with Dr. Wise.
Yours very truly
Jonas Goldsmith
