San-Francisco October the 31st./1862.
My Rev: Friend Leeser!
Long has it been my duty to write to you informing you of my dear Husband, children and my constant good health and happiness hoping the same is with you, which is allway's the greatest blessing, I have written one letter since I have been here, but received no answer no doubt you have never received it, I hope you will please me with a letter as it will please me very much. I make good use of the Prayer book and take it to your Synagogue, I have often spoken about you to our Rev. E. Hohn he is a fine man and is liked very much, I wish you could see what a nice Synagogue we have here, I will send you one of my card's hoping you will return the compliment, I can also inform you the best of my dear brother David and his family, little Moses will be Ber?it?ag tomorrow, they do not live in the City they live in San-Jose which is 50 miles from here, I hope you will excuse me for my poor writing as my little boy 11 month's old who wishes to have his hand in it, and my oldest a boy 3 ½ year old

I must say myself that they are fine boy's, My dear Husband send's his best regard's to you. I hope you will visit Father occasionaly.
I remain your sincere friend.
Isabella Meyerfeld.
P. S. My dear Sister in law tells me she is acquainted with you therefore I need not introduce you. I. Meyerfeld.
