Dear Sir
With this you will no doubt also receive a letter by of M. Strauss Esq. our Parnass, concerning the affairs of Mr. Henry and myself. I wrote to you last week on the same subject, but ? in the Occident for this month that you rather somewhat disbelieve my state,ment from last year, and fearing you might perhaps be induced to do the same now, I requested Mr. Strauss, to write so you on the same subject himself, as the head of this congregation. I pray, do me the favour of inserting the his communication, as your editorial seem to have appeared just in the right time to favour Mr. Henry and so injure me. I know full well, that your intention is good, and that you allways strife to do justice to all and every one within the influence of your correspondenze and this knowledge gives me the hope—nay—the certainty, that you will insert Mr. Strauss letter, just as it reads, in your next months Occident and if you should think proper to be paid for, I will cheerfully pay myself for the insertion of the same. At the same time you are at perfect liberty to lay by my communication on that subject, provided you will be kind enough to insert the letter of Mr. Strauss.
Yours
most respectfully
B H. Gotthelf
Louisville Ky Aug. 10th 1851.
