Mr Leeser
My dear sir,
A gentleman by the name of Berk said to be a Polish Jew converted to Christianity has a plate or picture of Jerusalem & a history of the city and professes to be familiar with its history &c. I do not expect that you will give me any opinion respecting the genuineness of his supposed conversion, but I would be obliged if you will tell me whether you know any thing to his prejudice apart from this. I have been asked to secure his admission to lecture to an assembly I should be sorry to introduce him, if his moral char-acter & standing are not irreproachable your reply will be confidential.Yours truly
Fred A Packard
Mr Leeser
