We regret to learn that the Israelites at Cleveland have met with a
great loss in the destruction of their place of worship by fire, on the
night of February 5th, [1845] and that they have saved only the
Sepharim, (the manuscript copies of the law,) that they had but little
insurance on the property, and are unable to replace their loss from
their own means. We trust that the various congregations of Israelites
in America, as well as individuals will think this a case worthy of
their charitable sympathy; and we offer our services to convey any funds
collected for the purpose of aiding our brethren in Cleveland to their
proper destination. Those wishing to write direct, may address A.
Lowentritt, Cleveland, Ohio. |
