Sent to the prominent rabbi, the exalted priestly chassid ... Rabbi Yehoshua Nachum HaKohen Rabinowitz. Inter alia, the Admor blesses him with a good year: 'that you be remembered for the good before Hash-m, with all your family, to be inscribed and sealed in the book of the righteous for a good, long life, with healing and salvation for all who are ill.' The Admor's son added six handwritten lines in the margins of the letter.
