Description
   “The want of a regular printed form of the solemn duties performed as the last service rendered to a brother of the house of Israel, has been long felt and regretted by those benevolent members who devote themselves tothis mournful occupation, especially by the junion members, whose want of experience in administering these sacred duties, reders them almost useless in the absence of the senior brethren.” This list of members in this copy has three names by hand.
