Notes	Letter is from the steamer Dalmatia. Stationery bears crest in blue with the word“Vorwaerts” (forward, in German) under an anchor and crown. Underneath crest are the words “Oesterreichischer Lloyd. Triest.” Large watermark depicting a crown and the words “Imperial Century.” The city of Acre was captured by King Philip Augustus of France and King Richard the Lion-Hearted of England during the Third Crusade (1189-1192) . Bakshish, stemming from the Persian for “to give,” means to tip . The stories of Tabitha, Simon the Tanner, and Peter’s vision are from Acts 9:26-10:15. Peter raised Tabitha (also called Dorcas), a charitable woman, from the dead in the town of Joppa. He stayed there at the home of Simon the Tanner (today the house is open for visitors), where he had his vision of animals trapped in a sheet, which the Lord bade him to eat. When he refused, protesting that the Lord had designated some of them unclean for consumption, the Lord replied, “What God hath cleansed, make not thou common.” Following this vision, Peter visited a Gentile named Cornelius and widened the scope of Christian ministry (then practiced within Judaism, as it was considered unclean for a Jew to minister to a Gentile) to include those outside the Jewish faith.

Transcript	Str. “Dalmatia”, Oct. 28, 1911 . Dear Alg , I meant or wanted to write to thee sooner, but thought I would wait until we were really touching Palestine. I have my map at hand in the case which thee presented me, and I think it is going to be fine. So far nothing is blocking our plans – neither
