A familiar figure has passed with the death of Mrs. A. J. Friedlander, at the age of eighty-seven. Lisette Friedlander was a resident of Cincinnati for seventy years, and was prominent in philanthropic work. Mrs. Friedlander had been a member of the Plum Street Temple since its organization.
She was the widow of the late Abraham J. Friedlander who died twenty-seven years ago, and who was one of the prominent Jews of Cinicinnati, active in all Jewish communal affairs and one of the coadjutors of the late Rabbi Isaac M. Wise in promulgating Reform Judaism and in the upbuilding of the national Jewish institutions.
