closed ; none can go out and none come in ; the city is in a state of siege. The inspectors of Quarantine surround it. We do not groan for the disease of provisions nor for the grievous famine, but we supplicate you to aid and help us in saving hves. Unhappily, the disease has reached us ; there is great terror and fear in the Holy City. We are obliged to appoint men in every street, provided with the needful medicaments against the epidemic. The men who are charged with this duty act very diligently, and have, thanks to the Almighty, been enabled to restore to health all that were attacked by this malady. But in order to save hves we were obliged to act regardless of expense. Whence, however, have we the means to employ these precautions ? And, besides, there are so many poor and indigent who need bread, without any one to deal it unto them. Shall they be allowed to be in want at such a time as this, when it is danger of death to go about weak and hungering ? Alas ! it is a time of great calamity for Jerusalem. We therefore, feel emboldened to lift up our voice and to pray to you to go forth to the help of your people, your brethren. It is not the time to be silent. We implore you to assemble your Congregations, and to speak to their hearts^ that they may aid those that are afflicted by famine lest, God forbid Behold, our strength faileth us to cry unto you ; if we had the power, we would call to you with words that could move the whole world, for we are in great distress. Oh, arise and mercy upon Zion ! Those that have compassion upon her will meet with compassion from the Most High. The humble prayer of the heads and Rabbis of the Congregation of Sephardim and ,Ashkenazim, in the Holy City of Jerusalem. David Chasan (Haham Bashi). Samuel Salant. Meyeb Atjebbaob*.
