Dr. H. W. Schneeberger,
1802 E. Baltimore St.
BALTO., MD.
Balto. Nov. 20th
Rev Dr S Morais,
Esteemed friend
I delayed answering your favor until I heard of the plan of the committee. The Exercises will not begin till 2.30 P. M.; either way should conclude to come with the 11 A. M. train we will wait for you.
Here is one thing I would regret; that is that you should have, arrive & go to speak without having partaken of anything: I anticipated the pleasure of your company for dinner that day. Perhaps you can leave on the earlier train & arrive after 12 Pm; that will give you ample time to rest & refresh yourself. Possibly the B & O. runs more favorably for your convenience. In either case you will kindly inform me when you expect to come as the committee will await you at the depot.
I need not apologize when I say that y as you have not known Mr Jonas [?] as well as I have you do not know all his amiable & good qualities. He has been the founder & most liberal suporter of the Congr. has been Vice-Pres. for many & Prest for the last 12 years. He is the first in the syn--3 time daily--his self sacri-fice & devotion, to the cause of Orthod. Judaism is something marvelous--His bounty is not limited to coreligionists: He has been the founder of many & liberal supporter of many all charitable institutions in town; encour-ages the seats of learning here & in Europe; a lavish contributor to the Poor of Palestine, His children 1 daughter & 3 sons rank high in the community. He is modest, affable & courteous to all--at peice peace with every body--there is not one whose enemy he is--he will apologize to the slightest imaginary offence by word or deed that he may have been guilty of--these
& many others are the in brief some of his charac-teristics. You will pardon me for this information unsought for--possibly you may have valued such. Rev. Dr Szold will speak after you.
Wishing you [Hebrew] & awaiting your reply at your convenience With kindest regards Yours Sincerely H W Schneeberger
