Antelman to eliminate the opiate vol1

Ephraim-ltzig consortium by marrying one of Daniel's twelve
children.
Daniel's daughter Leah married B. Seligman (1771-815),
progenitor of Joseph Seligman of Our Crowd, who was president
of Felix Adler's leftist Ethical Culture Society, and considered
himself a free thinker, but in reality was an atheist. 161
Felix Adler's wife, as we mentioned before, was the sister-
in-law of Louis D. Brandeis, and the daughter of Joseph
Goldmark (1819-1881), who was born in Warsaw. A radical
Communist in the Austrian revolution of 1848, he was
president of the Student Union, and conspired to murder the
Austrian Minister of War, Latour. He escaped to America and
was sentenced to death in absentia for his part in Latour's
death. By 1868, Marxist radicals had so gotten in control of
Austria that when Joseph returned to Austria, he was acquitted
of his role in the Latour murder.
Joseph married the daughter of Frankist Gottlieb Wehle.
His son Henry (1857-1941) designed the locks of the Panama
Canal, and his daughter Pauline (1874-1962) was a prominent
social worker and secretary of the National Consumer
Leagues. 162
It was Daniel Itzig's daughter Blumchen (1752-1814) who
married David Friedlander of the Mendelssohn circle, and who
participated in the heretical Biur, the German translation of the
Torah. However, Friedlander's avocations were not lightly
regarded by the Itzig clan.
Naftali Herz Weisel (Wessely in some texts (1725-1805)
contributed the Leviticus Commentary to the Biur. He was an
alumnus of one of Rabbi Jonathan Eibeschutz's seminaries, 165
which as early as 1726 had been placed under a Rabbinical
ban for their Sabbatian teachings. Eibeschutz had established
such seminaries in cities where he sojourned, such as Prague
and Altona.
