closing he emphasized strongly the
great debt which mankind owes to

continued referring to the benefits
| which are to be derived from the

benefit of the whole community, and
is of great service to the people gen.

ialthough some people scorned, yet the
country as a whole took pride in the
Jewish race. He expressed a hope in
elosirg that the synagogue would be
dedicated to all that is good and

true religion and morality.
