Gifts from American Jews were presented to the Marrano congregations in Portugal by Dr. David de Sola Pool, Rabbi of the Spanish and Portuguese Congregation of New York, who is visiting here.
Funds for propaganda among the Portuguese Crypt-Jews, for prayer books and two Holy Scrolls were among the gifts. The Holy Scrolls were presented by Bernhard Mayhoff in memory of the late Herman Handricks, a descendant of a Maranno family of the seventeenth century, and by Mrs. Israel Unterberg in memory of the late Edgar J. Nathan, whose children gave $100 for prayer books. Dr. David de Sola Pool preached before the new Maranno congregation in Oporto.
