Mr M Jacobs of Athens made complaint to me in regard that he has received but 2 No of his Occidtent & has subscribed at the time when you were in our city last news we have but little our congregation is coming on slow although our Hebrew Mr I Schatz is well beliked & fully deserves it, He is a gentleman that haves? a good caracter but he is not
able to Legtur which is very much wanting in a place like ours. I have a great trouble to get Hebrew on Sabath & the fact is if they should not improve in a short time in religious feeling I fear nothing will remain but the name. My intention is to move to your city next fall, where I hope to hear your valuable Legtures on many occasion.
