Letter by Rabbi Yisroel Sholom Yosef of Atinia
Letter handwritten and signed by Rabbi Yisroel Sholom Yosef of Atinia to his friend Rabbi Yosef of Safed, about charity to Safed. 1937.
The letter is about monetary support from Chernovich, which eventually was not carried out due to restrictions that were imposed in Romania. The Rav notes his great sorrow for this, since "he knows how much they looked forward to this support". The Admor continues his efforts to arrange the delivery of the donation, his efforts to receive permits to come to Chernovich and to find a safe way to send the money. At the end of the letter, the Admor sends his blessing: "ד' ירחם על פליטת עמו ישראל כי כשל כח הסבל. ידידו המצפה לתשועת ד' במהרה".
