Congregation Ohavai Sholom Mariampol.
This congregation was established in 1870. The synagogue is located at Canal and Liberty streets. They also own a large burial ground. In the synagogue is an extensive library of Hebrew books.
A loan association is connected with this congregation and it is doing much good. The first president was Mr. Louis Levin, and the present president is Mr. J. M. Berkson. They have an endowment clause in their constitution, which stipulates that the widow of a member is entitled to the sum of $300 from the treasury of the congregation.
