- A public warning that Jacob Levenstyn (not Jaque Levenstein) is a meddling, inquisitive person prying into the business and personal character of others. Dating is based on Longworth’s American Almanac, New- York Register, and City Directory ... [1838-39] (New- York, 1838), p. 391, the only year of this directory that places Levenstyn, a clothier, at the 230 Hudson address given by De Tonge.
