1t iswitha heavy heart we chronicle the death
of the Board of Education of that city. Mr.
Sangers life emphasized the fact, that man
can be prominent citizen and public man.
without disregarding or concealing his faith.
Midst all his many public duties he found
time to give to his synagogue to its Sabbath
school and to Jewish institutions.
Mr.. Sanger adorned his profession THAT OF
law and his career was an honor and credit
to his city and his faith.
May he rest in peace.
