U. S. Cir Court Clerk's Office
St Paul Feby 12, 1863.
Revd. Isaac Leeser
Dear Sir.
Your letter of 2d Feby. With rect. for School books and also the Book came to hand; I have again to call your attention to a little neglect on your part, not so much on account of the amount, but that matters may be properly understood between us.
Soon after I forwarded to you, the amount for school books. I also forwarded $3. the amount of my subscription to the “Occident” for one year and $1.50 for 2 Copies of Dias' letters, sent to me leaving the Bible only in my charge unpaid for

did not that letter come safe to hand.
I am sorry to trouble you with this small matter; but if I am to attend to any business for you it is better that we should have all items, properly ac-counted for. I will communicate with you hereafter in regard to send-ing books here to be disposed of & in the meantime will do what I can to procure subscribers for you, in this section, my time is not so much occupied but that I can attend to any thing you may desire here!
The Occident to Mr Marcuson and myself comes to hand! W. M. I trust will content himself here tho' from all I have seen of him his great fault is being unsettled! he is a frequent visitor at my house and

both Rachel and myself desire a great deal of information from in regard to Religion in which we both take great interest. he is no doubt a very learned man; and should be at the head of a large congregation!
We all continue well and Nelle quite dilighted that you should remember, her. I have read the “Jews & Inquisition and with Mr Marcuson's explanaturis?, I have been delighted with it, and will cheerfully remit the price of any similar work you can forward to me.
Yours very Respectfully
J N Cardoza
Mr. Abm Elfelt, is well and sends respects &c
