My Direction
A. Rice 133 E. Baltimore St.
Baltimore, Monday, 25 of Sivan (June), 1862.
To my friend, the celebrated, etc., etc. Isaac Leeser:
Since I know very well that you, my friend, are ever ready to do me a kindness, therefore I come to request of you one thing which may seem little in your eyes but to me seems very difficult. Next week, I shall have to make a wedding speech. The bride does not understand German Therefore would you please be good enough to send me such a sermon in English. It must, above all, contain that the Kallah must be a Jewish life, and a hint to the wise, etc. Please write it very clear so that I should be able to read it, and send me this by Friday or Saturday. Since my house is too far from the synagogue, I am compelled to change my residence next week and, because of this, I am very much occupied.
Your true friend,
Abraham Rice
