Amongst my own earliest personal recollections concerning Newport is that of a visit of some Jewish friends of my mother's girlhood, who lived there, to my father's house in schenectady.

The sign never came, but several years later I went to make a visit to my brother Charles, who had then removed to Plainfield, N.J., where he practiced medicine, and was one of the main supports of the church in a community where the sect was large enough to have a constant worship, which it never had in schenectady.

We slept under a boat overturned by the shore that night until the rising tide drove us out, when we decided to take the road back to schenectady on foot, through a wide pine forest which occupied the intervening country, a distance of about sixteen miles.
