Rare, significant eulogy preached just eighteen days following the death of the Rev. Isaac Leeser, the godfather behind just about every worthwhile venture that the Jews of America of the time could be proud of. The sermon was given, appropriately enough, by Moses Dropsie, who was Leeser’s primary financial sponsor for so many of the rabbi’s literary and organizational projects.
