Seven West Nineteenth Street
New York Febry. 26Th 5633.
Rev. S. Morais.
Respected Friend.
I am asked to marry a couple on Wednesday [Hebrew] 26th, three days after [Hebrew]. In some congregations, it appears, weddings are celebrated during the days of [Hebrew] after [Hebrew] up to and including the days of [Hebrew], Such, as our mutual friend Rev. S. M Isaacs informs me, is the practise in his Congregation. But having heard that this is also the custom among the [Hebrew] in Italy and in the Levant, I take the liberty of asking you to inform me if such is the case; at the same time, if you will favor me with your views, and state by what [Hebrew] you are governed, you will greatly oblige me. I realise the importance of any act. on my part, that might make me responsible for future innovations, but fear also, lest in my
extreme timidity I increase the burden, and as in this instance unnecessarily make [Hebrew] a case that others freely permit. Mrs Lyons joins with me in kind regards and best wishes for your continued health and usefulness. I trust you will pardon my liberty thus intruding on your valuable time Begging for an early reply, if possible before Sabbath, I remain
Respected Friend
Yours Very Truly
