Note 91 — SKETCHES OF JEWISH LOYALTY, BRAVERY AND PATRIOTISM IN THE SOUTH AMERICAN COLONIES AND THE WEST INDIES.

See the Essai Historique sur la Colonie de Surinam, etc., (Paramaribo, 1788; Dutch version, Amsterdam, 1791), Vol. I, p. 123. Of this rare and valuable work, which was called forth by the writings of Dohm on the Emancipation of the Jews, only one copy (in the British Museum) is known to be in existence. The writer of these lines is having the volumes copied in view of his History of the Jews in Surinam. See for further references his paper in the P. A. J. H. S., No. 3, pp. 126-30. It is worthy of mention that this is the first work published in Paramaribo.
