Long interesting Letter by Rabbi Meyer Weiss AB"D Pressburg to Rabbi Moshe Dovid Ostreicher AB"D Chimpa, Sighet, 1948.

"חותם "מאיר בן רחל ווייס.

הגאון רבי מאיר ווייס היה תלמיד מובהק של בעל מנחת אלעזר זצ"ל, והמנחת אלעזר היה רגיל להכין שיעוריו ביחד עם הגאון רבי מאיר.
היה גר בפרעשבורג עד שנת תשכ"ה, והיה מנהיג הקילה שם, ואח"כ בא לניו יארק עד פטירתו בשנת תשנ"ה.

Known as a tremendous Talmid Chochom and great Posek, he served as Rov in Tchimpa and later Arad. Miraculously surviving the Holocaust, after the war he was greatly involved in helping Agunos after the war. He later immigrated to New York, settling in Williamsburg where he was held in great esteem.
