SEDER TEFILAH. THE ORDER OF PRAYER FOR DIVINE SERVICE: II. VOLUME: DAY OF ATONEMENT VOL II ONLY OF 2

186342038New York Printed by Thalmessinger & Cahn 1863. Hardback. 2nd Revised Edition edited revised and corrected by S. Adler 1st printing thus. Original gilt tooled leather 8vo 396 pages. In Hebrew and English on facing pages. Formerly Singerman 1780 now merged into Singerman 1667 as vol II variant 1 Thalmessinger & Cahn. The second of two volumes vol. 1 Daily prayers & vol. 2. Prayers for the Day of Atonement this volume substantially reworked by Adler and published 1860 vol. I and 1863 vol. 2 here. Together these comprise the First Edition of Samuel Adler's revised edition of Leo Merzbacher's 1855 Prayer-Book. Despite the modest title-page Adler's production here was not merely a revision but rather an entire reworking with additions and alterations to the liturgy. Rabbi Leo Merzbacher's original version of the prayers was quite traditional. "As resourceful and accomplished a liturgist as Merzbacher proved to be he seldom sought to .willfully turn aside from the traditional cannon" Friedland p. 36. Samuel Adler on the other hand Merzbacher's successor at Temple Emanu-El of New York had no such reservations about adopting radical change to the structure of the prayer-book. In his version of the "Order of Prayer" Adler did not rely on sources in Jewish tradition rather he changed the prayers according to his subjective views of how synagogue services should be conducted. See Eric Lewis Friedland Brandeis University dissertation The Historical and Theological Development of the non-Orthodox Prayerbooks in the United States 1967. Indeed it was precisely this 1860-1863 version of the "Order of Prayer" that was adopted by Temple Emanuel in New York and all subsequent issues of the "Order of Prayer" utilized this version containing Samuel Adler's revisions. The Union Prayerbook itself was largely based on Adler's 1860-1863 revisions here. Consequently this prayer-book was also the cause of much controversy. Orthodox Rabbi Bernard Illowy of St. Louis fumed that whomsoever utilized this "so-called" prayer-book was to be "entirely excluded from all religious communion" see Michael A. Meyer Response to Modernity: A History of the Reform Movement 1995 p. 237. Leo Merzbacher 1809-1856 received his Rabbinic ordination from the celebrated Rabbi Moses Sofer of Pressburg the "Chasam Sofer" the leading opponent of the Reform movement. Merzbacher immigrated to America in the 1840's "and was the first Reform rabbi in the country. After serving at Anshe Chesed and Rodeph Sholom in New York Merzbacher became the rabbi of Emanu-El the first Reform temple in the city.The 1855 edition of This prayer book was the first Reform edition issued in America for general use" Goldman. Merzbacher adopted changes in synagogue custom such as the prominent use of an organ and eradicating the observance of the second day of festivals. Samuel Adler 1809-1891 replaced Merzbacher in Temple Emanuel in 1857 following the latter's death where he served until 1891. Adler's son Felix was the founder of the Ethical Culture movement.

FAMILY FEUD OVER STILLWATER NEW YORK LUMBER AND COAL BUSINESS

70600An archive of photographs ledgers canceled checks legal documents and other business and personal records from a Stillwater New York family who feuded over the disposition of a lumber and coal business at the turn of the last century. The troubles began following the death in 1898 of Stephen Wood Sr. the owner of Stephen Woods Sons Lumber and Coal in Stillwater New York. The business continued on under the direction of his two sons Stephen and Edward who were named executors of the estate. Two daughters were not included in the settlement. The sons cared for their widower mother Temmy but there was no formal settlement of the estate. When Edward who took care of the books died in 1908 matters became complicated and the family found itself in court because Edward's wife Louise C. Wood asked for a settlement of his portion of the estate. Temmy then sued saying she was owed a third of the estate which was also indebted to her for $6000 in personal loans. This legal dispute went on for several years during which Stephen Jr. died on February 14 1911 followed not long after by his mother Temmy who died in 1912. After Stephen Jr.'s death the remaining heirs settled the dispute with Louise paying her $1500. When Temmy died her estate was left to her granddaughters who signed their inheritance rights over to their mother. Among the court documents is a final settlement of the estate legal fees which were paid in 1917. In a typed letter dated November 8 1911 Emma Wood the daughter of Temmy Wood expressed the concern and frustrations she and her sister Kate felt over the legal troubles. "I understood Kate to say this morning that she does not want to have anything to do with it but that whatever you decide upon will be her decision also. I am in too nervous a state to discuss matters verbally with you so think best to write what I feel the honest thing to be done." Much of the material in this collection appears to be related to the request to settle the estate and therefore provides a detailed overview of the operations of the business along with the family's personal holdings and business dealings. Among the materials included are a handwritten bills ledger receipts legal documents family wills household notebooks and a photographic album. unknown

These are the first editions of Greenleaf's printing of the Laws. The third volume which issued in 1797 prints only the laws of the sixteenth through the twentieth sessions. The long list of Subscribers printed in the second volume includes the great men of the times: Aaron Burr George and De Witt Clinton several Livingstons Elias Hicks and a host of other attorneys. Greenleaf reprinted all three volumes together in 1798. Greenleaf's Preface explains that he had been "engaged to publish a cheap Edition of the Revised Laws". A 1789 folio edition published by Hugh Gaine had been too expensive for most people. Volume I which "contains all the Laws to the eleventh Session has one Session more than is comprised in the first Volume of Gaine's Edition." He emphasizes that "The Types and Paper were manufactured in this State.The Types are not so perfectly Regular as those from the London Foundaries which have been improving for Centuries-- but no Cash went to London for them-- and our infant Manufactures ought to be encouraged that they also may improve."
