Dear Sir!
A couple of months ago, being in Caracao, I was presented with the accompanying prospectus, by Samuel Piso, Esqr, of Barcelona, and wishing to become a subscriber to the “Occident and American Jewish Advocate” (Monthly Periodical) I have taken the liberty of filling up my name etc. in the said prospectus and of addressing you on the subject. I am very wishful to be in the possession of the 9 volumes, which have already appeared and the one which is now in progress of this periodical, and you will therefore extremely oblige me by handing the same to Captn. Wilkins of the Barque Paez, who will give you $20.—that is till the completion of the 10th volume Ulto. March 1853, and also to let me know what two copies of the new translation of the Holy Scriptures, and one of the portuguese form of prayer bound as noted in their respective subscriptions will amount to, so that I may be able to forward you a bill for the costs fur „ther you oblige me by sending the same, when ready to my ad „dress, and by the beginning of the 11th volume of the monthly to forward me the numbers as they are issued by the Dallett pack „et, for which I shall remit the subscription in due time.
Please be so kind as to inform me also, what may be the cost of a Hebrew grammar, in English, Lexicon, and English & Hebrew
& Hebrew, and Hebrew & English Dictionary, neatly bound-
In return I shall be very happy, in case I can be of use to you, to offer you my services, and remain, Dear Sir,
Yours very truly
A Myerston
