who has been for five years in charge of the
synagogue e. House of Love" on Eleventh
ST. eet between Marshall and Clay, recently
received very illttering call to congrega-
ticn in Hartford, Connecticut, and resigned
his charge here in order to accept it. But
there was meeting Of the congregation on
Sunday. at which they refused to accept his
resignation, increased his salary 500, and
urged him to withdraw it.
1t will be gratifying TO DR.. Bettelhcim's
many friends in Richmond TOR he has won
friends among all classes OF our people
especially the Christian ministers of the
city, to learn that he has finally decided to
remain, although the salary offered in Hart
ford Is larger than the one he is to receive
here.
Of fine ability, fine scholarship, ard en-
cellcnt social qualities, DR.. Bethlehem would
be Il loss TO tie community, and all will be
gratited at bis remaining.
