The Board of Delegates of American Israelites was established in 1859 in order to organize, under one central authority, the functioning of all synagogues and religious schools throughout the United States. These by-laws lay out the rules and regulations in relation to the functioning of the Board, as well as to set out the proper conduct in the involvement of the Board within congregational matters. Rev. Isaac Leeser was appointed the Board's vice president. The autograph manuscript of these By-Laws written by Leeser was sold by Kestenbaum & Company in Sale 79, Lot 199.
