Rehine, Zalma (1757-1843). Autograph Letter Signed written to Isaac Leeser, in English.
Autograph address panel on verso.
One page, with integral blank. 4to.
Baltimore: 7th April 1836
This letter from Leeser’s maternal uncle, Zalma Rehine, consists of complaints of ill health: “I have been very sick with a cold and pains in my side all yom tov…” Rehine also tells Leeser that a guest over Passover, one Mr. Black, “had seen you and is much pleased with you.” It would seem that Isaac Leeser was a relatively frequent topic of conversation between Rehine and his friends and acquaintances, and when he heard something about the impression his nephew - a rising star in the firmament of American Jewish clergy - was making, he would tell him about it.===On the reverse of the letter is a list consisting of seven lines, giving quantities of articles of clothing (e.g., “2 pairs of stockings”) in a separate hand that might be Leeser’s.
