N.Y. Friday,
Pericope Jethro (December)
(1848).
Peace, etc, etc to the
Rabbi Isaac Lehser of Philadelphia:
Although for two years I have refrained from writing about the New sect which is called Reformers, but, nevertheless, at the insistence of several people of great piety, I could not refuse, and my intention, is now to reply to the heretical works which are appearing in Baltimore every month and bear the name of Sinai. I refer especially to the last book which was published with regard to uncovering the head at the time of the grace after meals. That is why I ask you dear Sir, to write to me on Sunday next whether you want to publish in the Occident whatever I write. If so I shall send it to you next week. Thus will I know if I have found grace in your eyes. Your friend,
Menachem, son of Leib
Goldsmith.
My address is Emanuel Goldsmith
