OFFICE OF
G. H. MAYER,
Consulting Optician,
61 SOUTH MAIN STREET
Asheville, N. C., Dec 3rd 1891
Dr. S. Morais
Dear Sir
As an ex Philadelphian, and taking advantage of your readiness to impart Hebrew knowledge, I take the liberty to write to you for some inform-ation relative to the 10 lost tribes. I have on several occasions defended the Jews here and perhaps for that reason I have been requested to deliver a public lecture on this subject: I am not altogether familiar with the traditions on this subject and would be pleased to hear from you in regard to it. We have recently organized
a synagogue and sunday school and are now organizing to assist in placing a few Russians. I will be pleased to hear from you as it cannot fail to assist in elevating our people to a higher plane in the opinions of the Gentiles. With the hope you may find time to answer this before the 16th of the month, I remain very sincerely G. H. Mayer. - Identifier
