This letter from D. C. Labatt to Isaac Leeser, dated November 11, 1847, from New Orleans, LA, to Philadelphia, PA, submits a poem entitled "Moses Rescued by Pharaoh's Daughter." The poem, a translation from the French of Victor Hugo by Henry J. Labatt, is presented as the work of a young man, scarcely 15 years old. Labatt requests publication in Leeser's periodical, deeming the poem to have "some merit from its religious caste."
