Letter from Rebecca Gratz to Isaac Leeser Regarding the 30th Anniversary Meeting of a Benevolent Society

Description

Letter from Rebecca Gratz to Isaac Leeser, written from Philadelphia, PA. Gratz apologizes for not providing a copy of the reports from the board of managers' anniversary meeting in time for publication in the Occident. She requests that if space allows, the reports be included in the next issue, noting that the meeting was held on November 7th, 1849. She asks that the names of the officers not be published, expressing a dislike for the prominence of women's names in print when their contributions are relatively small.
