32 Siebenhuffner St.
Breslau, Dec 12th 1875.
Rev. Mr. Morais:
My dear Sir:
I trust you will pardon the liberty I take in this addressing you; but I wish to obtain a little information from you on a point which I am sure will interest you.
The fact is this. It is the custom in the Breslau Seminary for the more ad-vanced students to write historical essays in points in Hebrew history
& literature; & this year Prof Graetz has selected for me the life & writings of Moses Chaim Luzzatto to write upon. He has given me a few sources to work from. Kerem Chemed being the chief.
I write to you, then (for I knew your veneration for the Luzzatto family) simply to inquire whether you could impart any fresh sources for the biography (except the Keram Chemed & De-litzsch's Preface to the [Hebrew]) written in any language, including
the Italian. I want to make my work as thorough as possible.
I would certainly feel very grateful for any in-formation you could impart to me on this matter; & I should be pleased to reciprocate, as far as is within my power, your kindness & attention.
With my very best wishes for yourself & family,
Sincerely Yours,
A. S. Isaacs - Identifier
