Letter from J. Dyer to Isaac Leeser;February 21, 1867Letter from J. Dyer in Galveston, Texas to Rev. Isaac Leeser in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Dyer sends Leeser a sight draft for $1896.00, of which $16.00 is for subscriptions to *The Occident* for M. Koppel, I. C. Levy, I. W. Frank, and himself. He explains difficulties in procuring more subscribers due to competition from a coreligionist selling *The Messenger* and the preponderance of German and non-religiously inclined residents in Galveston. He also notes the lack of a synagogue. He includes a statement detailing the payment and balance due to Leeser, accounting for taxes. He concludes by requesting an acknowledgment of receipt of the draft.
