“a group of the Newport Jews broke in and engaged in a
            limited occupation that lasted for another year, whereupon
            [Jeshuat Israel] and several individuals brought suit in
            equity against [Shearith Israel] in a Rhode Island court,
            claiming a right to the Synagogue and its lands. [Shearith
            Israel] removed the case to federal district court, which in
            January 1903 sustained [Shearith Israel]’s demurrer and
            dismissed the case. See David v. Levy, 119 F. 799 (D.R.I.
            1903).” Id.
