Dr sir—A Stranger as I am I hope you will excuse the liberty I have taken in addressing you for the purpose of requesting a favour at your hands. Whilst on a visit last summer to my Brother in Law Solomon Eichelstiens I was introduced to the "Occident" In Vol 8. No 12 Veadar 5611 Alias March 1851 my attention was arrested by an article headed "Letters On Christianity" By Isaac Wise at the close of said article he proposes in his next to say something about the origin of Christianity and its dogma—That No I was not able to obtain as Mr Eichelstien had let someone have it Feeling a very strong desire to see what the views of an inteligent and well informed Jew was on a subject that Christian speakers and writers have thus far failed to give me any satisfaction on—I address you for that purpose of geting it if you can or will
send it to me—indeed I would be glad to have the whole series of Mr wises Wise's letters and will send you the money if they are to be had and I learn the sum requisite
But I am particularly anxious to get that portion respecting the Origin &c of Christianity
By so doing you will confer a lasting favour on one who wants more light on the mysteries of Religion
Very Respectfully
your friend
& Obt Svt
