Description

Abraham de Sola writes to Isaac Leeser from Montreal on December 14, 1864, to inform him of a significant error in the biography they are working on. The error, caused by carelessness in preparing the printing forms, renders four pages useless. De Sola describes the error and suggests a correction involving a reprint of pages 25-27 using the text from *The Occident* and a "cancel sheet." He mentions having received some letters and plans to respond to others.
