The Society of the United Hebrew Charities,
325 NORTH FIFTH STREET,
Philadelphia, September 24[,] 1884
Rev.S. Morais
Respected Sir
The Board of Government earnestly solicits your influence and urgent appeal to the members of your congregation, in order that the necessary means may be obtained to continue as heretofore to prop-erly assist our ever increasing poor. The great influx of emigrants and poor people from New Jersey, New York and other localities have very largely increased the number of our recipients, who have to be cared for by this society. Our funds having become exhausted, we were obliged to draw on our Treasurer who kindly advanced the requisite sums to aid our people, consequently we are now largely in debt to our Treasurer. Extra exertions will have to be made by our ever ready and benevolent community to carry us through this fall and winter. In hope that your efforts may be success-ful as usual I remain.
Very respectfully yours
M. Lazarus
