Born 1839.
Dr. Adler, son of Dr. Nathan Marcus Adler, was born in Hanover, and came
to London with his father at the age of six. He studied at University
College, took his B. A. degree at the University of London at twenty,
and that of Ph. D., at Leipzig, at twenty-two. In the following year he
was ordained Rabbi by the famous Rapoport, Chief Rabbi of Prague, and
became in succession Principal of the Jews' College in London and Chief
Minister of the Bayswater Synagogue. In 1890 his father, the Chief
Rabbi, died, and Dr. Adler was elected in his place. Dr. Adler is well
known not only by his powerful and scholarly writings, but by his work
among the poorer Jews of London.
