Dear Dr Morais--
As chairman of the Instruction Committee of the Mickve Israel Association, I have been requested to inform you, that it is the unanimous wish of the Executive Board, and of its committee, that you consent to conduct a class in "Jewish Liturgy--Its Rise and History". The 2nd and 4th Thursday
of each month, have been selected by the committee as desirable dates; but if these be not con-venient to you a change will be made. It was thought by the committee, and con-firmed by the Board, that an insight into the composition of the liturgy--a knowledge of the lives of the persons
who were inspired to write on some sub-jects. A consideration of the circumstances under which many of the farms were written--an ap-reciation of the emotions which called forth many of the utterances, and the reason of there being placed in the liturgy would do much to check
the tendency of the time (which is the result of ignorance) to do away with the sacred forms of worship. Hoping for an early & favorable reponse believe me, Sincerely yours, Elvira N. Solis - Identifier
