Montreal Canada E
April 18th 18?7
The Revd Isaac Leeser
Philadelphia
Dr Sir
It should not have troubled you just now when I know your time must be occupied in your great field of labour, but it being a matter concerning our holy Religion, I trust you will lend me a helping hand. A man by the name of Henry Silverstone has applied to me to give him Hebrew on my objecting to grant his request, on the grounds of having heard that he had a Wife in Philadelphia, he then produced me a letter from a Michael Eakerman his
Brother in Law of that City to say that Mr Silverston's Wife died on the 24th of March 1866 as I should like to have stronger evidence than that letter before giving the said Silverstone Hebrew any information you could give me in the matter would be thankfully acknowledged by all parties
Allow me to thank you for the Occident you so kindly forwarded to me, you will now be good to let me know in your next the terms, and how I am to remit to you the yearly subscription for it. Trusting that this may find you in the enjoyment of improved health
Believe me to be
Dr Sir
Yours truly
M P Cohen
Minister
English & German Congregation
Be good enough to hand over the enclosed to the party could you make it convenient - Identifier
