DIR. Steiner stated that he had
been asked by descendants of

OF this very interesting man

Dr. Steiner read extracts from

Whilst few of the members of
the Historical Society were very
familiar with the subject of the
reading, that fact proved to be
an advantage, as the facts and
points set forth by DIR. Steiner
were all the more appreciated
and enjoyed. Leaves from his
private life and portions of his
love letters were most charming.
