Letter from W. Hart to Isaac Leeser Regarding the Printing of the Report of the Special Committee of the Cong. Bnai Jeshurun, May 2, 1853
A two-page business letter written by W. Hart of New York on May 2, 1853, to Isaac Leeser. Hart requests 250 extra copies of the Report of the Special Committee of the Congregation Bnai Jeshurun, to be addressed to James M. Ruphah, the Secretary of the Congregation. Hart explains that the delay in his previous request was due to the Holy Days and expresses the Trustees' desire to distribute the reports simultaneously with *The Occident*. This letter is significant for illustrating that Leeser served as an intermediary for printing outside of his own publications, and for showing that a New York Congregation was ordering printing from Philadelphia.
