My Dear Mr. Leeser
Since I last had this pleas-ure I have to acknowledge receipt of your favor of Sept. 9th August 8th & 7th inst. together with the parcels accompanying which received due atten tion. M. Morrison No. 3 Charles St has returned to the city and on the 4th inst sent me $33 which he says he thought was the amt. of your bill, (it having been mislaid) I very politely acknowledged receipt of the money and enclosed a duplicate bill on which I credited the $33 leaving a bal of $3 still due from this last I have as yet no response. I enclose a note from I. N. Phillips (addressed to you) with the regret that I would read it before forwarding. This note is date Sept 6th but I cannot tell when it reached my office as I was absent. At all events it only came to my hands a few days since when it was found on overhauling some loose papers and cleaning up my Desk. I regret the

delay but cannot now help it. I have not collected any money for your a/c save Mr. Morrison's since my last report, but I keep firing notes. Mitchell Hart is a hard knot, but he has the redeeming quality of being good natured and prolific in promises. P. J. Joachimson?. A Kursheedt? and many others pay no attention to my notes. I have kept my son busy in trying to collect something, but without success. Louis Austin? says he has not had the Occident since 1858. How is it?
Remember me most kindly to Mr. Cozens and Ella who have my best wishes for health and happiness and when they wrote to Dr Wolff's family. I should like much to be kindly remembered to them also.
I was glad to meet Ella at Norwalk several weeks since. She is certainly very interesting and attracted much attention Mr. H & M Salz? always deserves to be remembered with best wishes for your health and prosperity
I remain as ever
Yours sincerely
H. S. Hanford
Who is it that you are cudgelling so lustily? about your Hebrew College? You are very severe in your last article I congratulate you on the political changes now being developed throughout the Northern States, Pennsylvania and Ohio in particular. I only hope the Ball may be kept rolling till the mad radicals of the dominant party are forever put to silence.
