Letter from Nathaniel Levine to Isaac Leeser, April 15, 1851
Description
Levine, Nathaniel writes to Isaac Leeser from Charleston, South Carolina on April 15, 1851, requesting that Leeser publish a sketch of Dr. E. in the May issue of *The Occident*, or, if that is not possible, to forward it to the editor of *The Asmonean*. Levine also discusses Dr. E.'s opposition within his congregation, his denouncement of Poznanski and his opinions, and offers to procure subscribers for Leeser's Bible. He mentions a recent domestic affliction that has prevented him from writing sooner, and expresses support for Leeser against his detractors, including Rev. Jacob Rosenfeld. He concludes by expressing his satisfaction with Leeser's address on the presentation of silver, which he found well-conceived. Two images are included: il_tcat_item30_wk1_body0001.jpg and il_tcat_item30_wk1_body0002.jpg.
