My dear Friend
I would like your opinion on the following. As you may not feel free to give me any advice on the subject I merely would like to hear your views. When I first moved to "Hilltop" there being no way to get to the city except by driving, I did not attend synagogue much to my regret. I have now finished building a railroad, and I think it would be less harm to use it on the sabbath to attend synagogue than to bring up my children away from all Jewish influence. As I have never as yet broken the sabbath, before doing it I would like to hear from you. With kind regards. Very truly Yours. M. D. Sarfaty.
