Abstract:
Includes the text of the letter, which was written in Ireland in 1784 and sent to her friend in Philadelphia (pp. 18-19). The letter does not contain Jewish content, but the article discusses the history of the Franks family, Jews living in Philadelphia, who supplied the British Army in colonial America with food from the mid-18th century and during the Revolution, and afterwards supplied food to British prisoners of war.
