Rodef Sholem, inserted in your valuable Journal Vol XX Nr 4 Page 184 having sufferd an entire mis-insertion, contrary to notice send, which you will please correct in your next issue.

Also in your previous Occident it appears on a Local Items that Moses Hirsch who died in the Pa Hospital was buried in the Mount Sinai Cemetary, which is incorrect. The decd was buried in the Burial Grounds of the Congreg. Rodef Sholime?.
