Summit, N.J.
Aug. 19, 1885
Dear Mr. Morais:
Could you possibly grant the writer of the enclosed letter a line or two of introduction to M. Vénézi-ani?
Most respectfully yours
M. Heilprin
St. Louis New York August 18th 85
Mr M. Heilprin Summit N.J.
Dear Sir!
As you know I came to this country orly only for the purpos to devote myself to the agriculture and in consequence of that I didn't care for any employement which was offered to me during the course of the way to this country, how-ever there was a very conveniabe one. Three years are now elapsed since my landing here and I am sorry to say
I am as far from my aim as 3 years ago. In all that time I couldn't find an employement as engineer or surveyor which would secure me a certain income and from which I were able to gather some means for my purpose[.]
I was working already as a common laborer but even in that I was unlucky so that I came to the con-clusion that with all my sacrifying and striving I wouldn't attain my end[.]
I heared that the baron Hirsh is com-mencing the construc
tion of the Syrian and Paletine Railway. I want therefore go to Paris and pray of you very much to get for me a good recommenda-tion to that man. I understand French as well as german, en-glish and Russian and ^think not I'll feel my self very strange in Paris[.]
Sincerly
Yours
