OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY
BOARD OF GOVERNORS
OF THE
Hebrew Union College.
Cincinnati, March 25th 5651. 1891.
Rev. Dr. S. Morais.
Philadelphia, Pa.
My valued friend.
How rapidly time passes away, only to think: 40 years having elapsed according to the Philadelphia letter in "The American Israelite" since your accession to the ministry of the congregation "Mickve Israel" how much joy and how much sadness has occurred in your flock during that period time, the many families faces who were worshipers at your innaugeration have passed away, I can well imagine what your feelings will be on the day these few lines reach you, when you gaze around the synagogue at the seats formerly occupied by the many dear friends, now vacated, when I was last in your synagogue I scarcely recognized five who were co-worshipers when I entered man-hood, well I suppose we can but thank Almighty God that he has permitted us to live and enjoy the present season, accept my dear friend our best wishes that God in His infinite mercy grant you many more years of life surrounded by your dear family, with health and strength to continue your sacred office, as you have done to the satisfaction of your congregation.
Please remember me kindly to dear Nina, Henry, Esther, and all the dear children. May God bless you, as ever I am very truly and sincerely, your dear friend, Jacob Ezekiel - Identifier
