In the headings, he occasionally mentions the places where the sermon was delivered, including Lakewood, Baltimore, Bensonhurst (Brooklyn NY), Milwaukee (Wisconsin), Pittsburgh (Pennsylvania), Detroit and Mount Clemens (Michigan) and more.
Two leaves enclosed, with additional outlines of sermons and a list of rabbis.
