1819ref. 1002411819. Paris de l'Imprimerie de Mme Ve Courcier rue du Jardinet no. 12 1819. 4pp. Unbound as issued. On 29 floréal an X 19 mai 1802 Napoleon Bonaparte 'Premier Consul' at that time passed a law to have the Canal Saint- Martin constructed together with the Canal Saint-Denis and the Canal de l'Ourcq. The project of the engineer Pierre Simon Girard 1765-1836 was chosen to resolve the problems of drinking water navigation in Paris. In 1790 he had won a price of the Academy for a work on the construction of canals and in 1798 he published the first work on the resistance of materials. By creating these canals there was the additional that a shortcut of the Seine was created. So ships could avoid the difficult center of Paris and ports could be built. Building of the canal Saint-Martin started in 1805 at both ends but the canal was only finished in 1825. Numerous difficulties related to constructing a canal in such an urban area had to be surmounted. The present document signed by Girard objects to a change that has been made in the initial project which wants to let the canal pass underneath the Hospital Saint-Louis. The author explains all his objections in detail. Important document for the history of the urbanisation of Paris. unknown

The bookplate is from Gratz College which the later Simon Gratz helped found. Nikelsburger takes on an apostate Jew Rev. Frey who is intent on converting his former coreligionists to Christianity. In his opening letter to Frey Nikelsburger does not hold back: "In your eagerness to convert the Jews to your way of thinking you make no scruples of converting and perverting the prophets by turning their words to a meaning which you conceive to be best adapted to your purpose; and in doing this you make them not only flatly contradict each other but themselves also." "For American Jews Koul Jacob seemed an appropriate answer to Frey a Jewish convert to Christianity who had resumed his missionary activities shortly after his arrival in America. It was a well-tempered but firm refutation of Frey's arguments. Moreover its author was an English Jew and if American Christians were to take offense at it its European authorship distanced American Jews from it" Berlin G. Defending the Faith. Albany: SUNY 1979. "Simon Gratz 1773-1839 and Hyman Gratz 1776-1857 inherited their father's business. Their store was at the Graff House 7th & Market where Thomas Jefferson wrote the first draft of the Declaration of Independence. Both Simon and Hyman Gratz were treasurers of Mikveh Israel. They were among the founders of the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. Simon served in the Pennsylvania Volunteers during the war of 1812." www.ushistory.org/mikvehisrael Simon Gratz' sister was Rebecca Gratz 1781-1869 the founder of the first Jewish Sunday school in America and who was also "said to have been the model of Rebecca the daughter of the Jewish merchant Isaac of York who is the heroine in the novel Ivanhoe by Sir Walter Scott. Scott's attention had been drawn to Gratz's character by Washington Irving who was a close friend of the Gratz family" Wikipeida. In addition Simon Gratz was a participant in the famous US Supreme Court real estate case of 1848 Gratz Vs. Cohen see: Solis-Cohen J. "A FAMOUS FAMILY FIGHT ABOUT REAL ESTATE: GRATZ VS. COHEN."
