This is a letter that Angus McEachran Editor of the Pittsburgh Press received on March 23, 1988 from Rabbi Joseph Spector of the Tree of Life Synagogue, Uniontown, PA. 15401.

Dear Mr. McEachran:

I am writing this letter to you as a means of expressing appreciation for the forthright letter to you from Ronald B. Saunders that appeared in the Sunday Press on March 20, 1988.

I am grateful to Mr. Saunders for his observations, especially his inclusion in his factual analysis of the well-documented 1929 slaughter of 67 Jewish students in Hebron by Palestinians of that day. It prompted me to write a note to each of my four children recalling for them how I could have been one of those killed had it not been for my mother, of blessed memory.

I thought you and Mr. Saunders might be interested in that note. As I do have Mr. Saunders' address, I would appreciate your sending him a copy of this letter and attachment.

You may print all of this if you feel it appropriate.

Sincerely yours,

Rabbi Joseph Spector
Tree of Life Synagogue
Uniontown, PA 15401
