Members of the congregation have presented a silver fruit stand to Mr L. Raiher
who is leaving for Southport in recognition of his work in connection with the
establishment of the synagogue in Harrogate. Two years ago when he came to
Harrogate no one had previously successfully attempted to provide a place of
worship. He set to work, provided a synagogue and a minister and Hebrew teacher
for the children. The congregation has now reached almost 40.
Speakers included H. M. Simans, Rev E. Kahn, Messrs E. Englander, L. Salberg, N.
Cohen, M. Sugden, N. Krivine, and L. Cope. Arrangements were by Mrs M. Sugden.
