No 81 Mt Hope Place 17 Dec 1891
My dear Doctor--you may suppose that I must have some unexplained motive in writing such a long letter--but all I have written in these pages were not elaborated or treated in my earlier pages--as new subjects many not yet noted in these pages
I desire that you will give me permission to inscribe to you the fruit of my labors.- until I had put you in possession with my lateral view, which might not be "Entapport" with yours would not have been doing you "Justice." Nothing not strictly scientific, or as in the shape of future science will be admitted that you will object to--
Its object to society I think highly important, I should like to specially dedicated. My literal objections to the revered Genesis cap I. V. I. 2 of KJ LXX version To "the Christian ministers of the world"--so as that they shall realize the the incongruities there to be found.
I desire to have my book say of 500 pages published. If the Jewish Publication Society will publish it I will give them the "first chance." I know of no reason why they should not.--
Intend if case you should do me the honor to permit the "Inscription"--I can give myself good reasons for requesting the permission.
I desire in that case to appropriate after the costs of publication have been deducted--to employ the nett profits in this way--I shall appropriate

I wrote most of this in December but you were so ill I would not send it until you had recovered. Excuse--but my cold has effected my eyesight

the nett proceeds for the three successive years in this manner the financial business to be conducted by the "Jewish Publication Society"--if thought advisable.
One fourth the nett profit to be paid in such manner as may be agreed upon, to the "Jewish Theological Seminary, as a yearly donation whether it may one hundred Dollars, or one hundred Thousand dollars! annually, for three years, at the end of that time the income to adver to my heirs and assigns [...]

materials for producing Heat & Cold food for animals and plants &c &c--- I have demonstrated by analysis & synthesis that Prof Grove of London Hypothesis given to the public some fifty years ago--endorsed by many great scientists [?] made him alright
This Hypotesis sally forth that Heat Light electricity magnetism--chemical affinity were all manifestations of the same force and resolvable into each other! I have proved it on the great alembic of nature, and the origin is the [?]."--This shows how [...] informed his theoretical work--[...] same manner--than [...]

and in man also we find a gradual ascent from the lowest who disregards every thing, spiritual to the noblest of his kind who lives con--formably in the destiny which the creator has placed before him.
If now on these four divisions of beings there exerts a gradual progression from the lowest to the best; we may naturally conclude that the earth itself is subject to the same law--and present a gradual progression from the lowest to the highest in value--we therefore read Deut XI.12 at and that the Lord thy God careth for the eyes of the low are always upon it--from the beginning of the year to the end of the year--&c. &c.
I have adapted the work of the Six days of creation to a cubically scientific arrangt and the result is--is that the sacred writer=becomes under my hand the Father of Science--altho throughout the whole treatise--He is not to be seen"--He simply says--God wills and it is done.--
In order scientifically to adopt the several kingdom of the world to Genesis I must have some authority I have found the authority--but it is entire novel with me. I have never seen Genesis I.I.--containing the four primordials The Solar System including Sun Moon and Stars.-- The Five Kingdoms of the World--The Tidural--The Aural--The Mineral-Animal and Vegetable,--

[Hebrew]
Without the use of "Rabbinical Dialectics." It is impossible to give an intelligent, translation or interpretation, to Gen 1.1. or, any other passage of the Holy Scriptures--in which abbreviations are used. I have therefore prepared a "Rule." for the above, and utilizing some well known scientific facts; as its basis; that those on the very threshold, If they are prejudiced; or have not learned--they may put "the book down"--and go no farther than to read my invitation" on title page and take up another author."
As [Hebrew] Ruach, atmosphric air, [Hebrew] chèmá Heat, or the principle of calorie, must be contemporaneously present, in the "Infinite space" or expanse," in order that, the "rays of Light" from the Sun," the "material soul" of the universe", might become visible to human sight,--
So, is it indispensable, that to correctly understand, and comprehend the higher", "Real meaning of the "remarkable words and Sentences" Inspired by the "Only One Infinite Spiritual Soul of the Universe to the sacred "Writer" Moses." the worthy recipient of those "communications.",--that they should be interpreted through the "Learned Men," his approved

companions, during the eventful journey from from the Land of bondage, which resulted in the emancipation of a million and a half of Innocent men, women and children led by the Sacred Writer and others bearing aloft Banners inscribed with the words--Civil and religious Liberty, the boon of God to man the first advance towards the civilization of the world.
I have now give the authority but I will have to curtail--I have all the Laws written down In the book. I refer to the interpretation of Gen. 1.1.
Moses uses the: [Hebrew]--in the Decalogue Adonai adds "[Hebrew]"--and "[Hebrew]." Moses in Genesis II. "[Hebrew]"
Through the [Hebrew] Lord of Hosts--and this name by the Prophets serves to represent all the various agents--angels and powers that govern the earth and its products. Called Her Works.--PSC III.21 The Hosts of the High One, The Sun Moon and Stars. This a spoken of those material and mechanical agent that govern the earth--The Eternal calls himself [Hebrew] and also [Hebrew] never changes the [Hebrew]--[Hebrew] is not conferred to man!--but is any thing animate or inanimate

I also give in my appendices very valuable and the latest research of eminent amount--and modern Profane working authors corroborating the facts and science of nature as demonstrated in the "Geology and floratile deposits of the Ocean rivers &c as well as the teachings of Inductive Philosophy of Lord Bacon on the veracity of the pentateuch and it has been left for me to discover Vers 9 of XCV, Ps forward: [Hebrew]--Verily He hath established the unalterable order of the universe-- The LXX King James and Revised Ed. give--He hath established the earth that shall never be moved this is the very essence of Ptolomaic Astronomy--Lord Bacon studied Aristotle and I believe that from the sentiments of Aristotle that he was a Hebrew Scholar--and he got the Translation from the hebrew.
My sight is very bad today and I cannot write more.
I also review "the works" of the late Prof Draper on his Conflict between Genesis & Science.

Prof Dawson of Montreal.

that assembles or meet together--and it is also the duty--or time itself of such attendance It is the Host or powers of the Aerial Kingdom with the Sun Moon or Stars--included or excluded--according to the context.--
So in Gen II.1 Thus were the heaven and the earth finished and all thine Host of agents powers--and effects on them. Vey Eth Col ashere Bam--Exodus Decalogue. The very essential Substance of the Heavens--The very essential Substance of the earth the very essential Substance of the Sea--and the very essential Substance of all things contained in all of them."--
We here find the very name with the ninth attribute the Eternal Omnipotent Only Creator of the universe and all it contains all the powers of agents angels and their functions, we have every reason to suppose that after making the Instrument of Light--and the Light itself He is mighty and strong in power--He proportioneth the quantity of Light and the Strength of the expansion and so settled the different quantities of Heat & Cold-- and all consequences on the bodies of animals and plants. -The Authorities can be elaborated so as that in Gen 1.1-all created things but man were in Existence. animals and vegetables (gigantic Behemoths and [?] so produce Carbonic acid and oxygen gases that the coal formations might be formed--and animals & vegables exist.

I show by citations that "Blanwelles" Science of organization a valuable book written in 1847. Its basis is from a Sermon I heard Delivered by Rabbi Abraham Rice of Balt. Md. in 1842 published in Occident No. 1. of Mr Leeser. I adapt the six natural kingdoms of the world and apply them to illustrate my book so that science was the very basis of Moses book.--and he--the Father of Science and the first teacher

I have also by analysis & synthesis proved that the Submergence of the Earth was caused by the abstraction of Heat from the Ruach Elohim--when the atmosphere being no longer capable of supporting 25 clouds 23rd, they collapsed into rain and covered the dry lang I show also that when on Day 3rd God Said there shall be Light, and light was-- The abstraction of Heat or caloric from the air caused the Earth to be overwhelmed. Then the Student would not be wrong if he thought--that as Heat caused the Earth to collapse--that it would be restored also by Heat--but God gave the command for Light and Light-was--But at this time it had never been proved that Light & heat proceeded from the Same but this Synthesis demonstrated Mr or Sir W Groves Hypothesis that Heat Light Electricity chemical affinity and magnetism are all manifestations of the same substance--and all resolvable into the same substance--Sir W Grove was knighted for the Hypothesis but I demonstrated the truth of it.-- All this is Shown Scientifically-- with lots of other interesting items, I might give an introductory lecture if could be arranged,--yours &c SNC
