Paul Friedmann was a German philanthropist; born at Berlin in the middle of the nineteenth century. Friedmann was of Jewish descent, and is connected with the family of Moses Mendelssohn. Much distressed over the fate of the Russian Jews after the persecutions of 1882-90, in 1890 he visited the land of Midian and resolved to found a colony there. He had a steam-yacht (Israel) built in Scotland, and went to Krakow personally to select the first immigrants. Twenty-four of these, under the leadership of Friedmann, Baron von Seebach, and Lieutenant Thiele, with a doctor, a chemist, and a builder, left Cairo in the middle of November, 1891.
