New York 10th March/54.
Rev. Dear Sir!
I have much pleasure in transmitting to you the inclosed invitation to the grand to-do at our school on Thursday 23d. Inst; and I am authorised by the Directors to say that they consider it their pleasing duty to bear the expence attending your visit to our city on this occasion.
In reply to your esteemed Letter I fully appreciate the kindness of your offer; but if the Hospital dinner-managers did not think it worth their while to keep their promise to the speakers, I do not think it worth my while to leave any record of my co-operation (or rather of my pliances) on the occasion. The speech was a good one and may serve again, as “Education” is a standing dish at our public feeds. I trust you will like the Toast? entrusted to you.
I am sorry there should be any misprints in Dr. Illowys Letter, especially one of which I fear our “meek and modest” brother at Cin: will not fail to make the most Hebrew. I like Dr. Ill. Letter; and if you or he have saved the portion I translated I will furnish the remainder in the course of next week; toutefore? if it suits your views to print it please let me know by return.
The folks at N. 100 unite in kind remembrance to you
Very truly yours
M J Raphall
