Fourteen autograph letters sent to the physician and founder of "Shaarei Zedek" Hospital Moshe (Moritz) Wallach. Cologne, ca. 1895-1926. German.
Most letters were sent by members of the Horn family, among the leading donors to the hospital, whose daughter Jenny was about to be engaged to Wallach (the engagement eventually did not happen and she married Moshe's brother, Ludwig). Among the letters:
• Six letters from Philipp Adolf Horn, father of the family, sent between the years 1895-1899. • Four letters from Jenny Horn sent between the years 1904-1907. • Two letters from Ludwig Wallach, Moshe's brother, from the years 1921-1926. And more.
Moshe Wallach (1866-1957), was born in Euskirchen (Prussia). Studied medicine in Berlin and Würzburg. In 1890 went on a mission on behalf of "Irgun HaPekidim veHaAmarkalim shel Amsterdam" to Jerusalem, where there were at the time only ten Jewish physicians. In 1901 he succeeded to get enough donations to purchase land near "Sha'arei Zedek" neighborhood and established a hospital by the same name.
Enclosed: three typewritten leaves with handwritten corrections (draft of a letter?); a handwritten note (in Hebrew and German).
