Dear Sir
In answer to yours I have to communicate that I have another Hebrew on hand entirely new and most Splendid written I may say better than the former you have seen at the same amount $75 or $70. I have also a new Hebrew in fact various, from 16 to 12, if you know of Any Hebrew in want of the above named articles please to name the parties or “Hebrew”
The subject of which I wanted to meet you, is that “Hebrew” Mr Isidore Bush from Wienna is residing here in town and calling on me, as having debt with him and having confidence in me, his idea being to commence or rather resume his printing estab-lishment here, having a large apartment of Hebr. & Germ. types on hand, there are more particulars concerned which I cannot mention here, if you might think proper that anything can or could be done with us it would to my opinions create much good to all parties, and would perhaps induce the American Israelites to procure to their families many books, not possessing at present. Mr. I B; having means to undertake the creation of a new Establishment, and I would be selected by him as his Hebrew and salesman here ect. “please to consider about it” most Respy Yours
Simon ?
