ADDRESS LETTERS
L. STRAUS & SONS,
P. O. BOX 1000.
Per Steamer_________________
42, 44, 46, & 48 WARREN ST., AND 116 CHAMBERS ST.,
New York July 8, 1897.
CABLE ADDRESS: (STRAUS, NEW YORK.)
Rev. Dr. S. Morais,
Pres't Jewish Theological Seminary,
546 N. 5th St., Philadelphia, Pa.
My Dear Dr. Morais:
I beg to acknowledge receipt of your favor of yesterday in answer to my letter of the 6th informing you that Baroness de Hirsch had authorized me to pay to the Seminary the sum of $6,000.00. In accordance with that au-thority I herewith enclose you my check in favor of the Jewish Theological Seminary for the sum of $6,000.00.
I thank you very much for your kind expression of thanks, but I desire to say to you what I have previously said in other communications, when donations have been made by the Baroness, that I feel that I am deserving of no credit for these philanthropic acts of the Baroness. I am simply a medium assisting her in such work as she desires done in this country.
Will you have the kindness to sign and return to me the enclosed receipt, which I wish to return to the Baroness as a voucher?
With best wishes for the welfare of the Seminary, and with personal regards to yours, I am, Very truly yours, Oscar S. Straus - Identifier
