Emigrant aid society, founded, 1871, ministers to the spiritual and temporal needs of German emigrants. In 1883 at the instigation of Peter Paul Cahensly a New York branch was established, and in 1889 a place of shelter called the Leo House was founded to supplement its work. It eventually extended its protection to emigrants of other nations.
