Rev & Dr Sir
Yours duly recd and have to inform you that Mr Spier gave the same answer as before: “Philip has recd none” Sunday I think in the first meeting of the School before whom you claim will be presented, and as soon I will receive it I will forward it.
In regard to the Church they intend purchasing I can only say that there is no earthly possibility to do anything but making the entrance at Hebrew where it is now, and the Hebrew either direct North East or North West the latter is the most probable side; as for Reformers I do not care, I only care for the fanatics Hebrew...I believe the Hamburger Synag. at London is neither placed Hebrew and believe it to be on the North East, I am not sure; as I stated I am lacking ? books Hebrew but I would say if you would discuss the matter with some conversant in our Laws, or having the required books, you would perceive that I am right to authorize the Trustees, under the existing circumstances to do it. Mr Ettinger, Mr Pape Old Mr Heilprin Hebrew are able to decide the matter, they will find no difficulty whatever. I have ordered some books from Europe and will soon be out of my troubles
You will confer a great favor on me to attend to it at your earliest convenience. If purchased no messenger or Hebrew you will officiate Hebrew. I will look for that.
The are resolutions passed touching myself & Son shall I send them to you or to the Hebrew? There are some notes of private individuals which mys be written over, send me word how to do
Yours Truly
Simon le Noot
