Mr. Isc Leeser
Philadelphia
Dear Sir
I have before me yr favors of 31st July and 5th Sept both accompanying the Occidents all ? I regret to state I have no new subscribers and I fear the next year I shall still loose some of the few I have however I must hope things will be better then nor have I been more lucky with the prayer books, the hollidays are always the time to sell but not a single sell could I get off all alluding the books are too heavy particularly the kipoor, we have the service recd from England in 3 Books which are much admired every boy wants of that sort, please send me 2 Dz each of the Road to faith & Hebrew spelling books they are wanted for the Sunday School
I have just Recd a letter from my correspondent in Boston who informs me he recd the Hebrew of Palm leafs and Citrons and frwa? them to you but he does not say when I hope they arrived in time and proved good ? answer to my enquiry, Miss Joseph Trull ? inform me that 15 f? were worth 94 c ?
? you dollars for 5 fr pieces that? I have debitted you ? 6c each on $90.42 ? of 6 francs making $5.42/100 which please remit? me for our accts. to agree.
I am happy to inform you the school of Mr. Casseres or rather the Sunday School is getting on famously and doing ? of good, the young ladies that joined as teachers are constant and indefatagable in their ? attendance and exertions and well merit the good will of the nation, it would be well if in all parts where we are spread our young ladies would ? as much for our poor children
I am Dear Sir
Your Obt. Sevt.
M Daunt
