One of last letters with hand written signature of Hrh"k the Imrei Chaim of Viznitz. Safed summer of 1971.

'כי רוב רובם של הדא"ח בספרי רבוה"ק מתוך עוצם קדושתם דרכם בקודש לצמצם ולהלביש אמרי קודש בקוצר אמיץ מעוטף בעדי עדיים תורת הנסתר וקבלה אשר רק יחו"ס ירדו לעומק מחשבתם...

ברכתי שלוחה בזה לכל העוסקים בזה, ברך ה' חילם ופועל ידם תרצה ויזכו להוציא מחשבתם הטוב מכח אל הפועל לרוות צמאון נפש המשתוקקים לכך, וזכות אבהוה"ק ורבוה"ק תגן על כל המדבקים בספה"ק להמשיך להם השפעות טובות ברו"ג.'

Hrh"k Rabbi Chaim Meir Hager of Viznitz [1877-1972] son of the auther of 'Ahavas Yisrael', the fourth Rabbi in the chain of the Holy Viznitz dynasty, from the great sages of the previous generation, who set up and built Viznitz and it's institutions after the Holocaust, was from the leaders of Agudat Yisrael and from the notable members of the Moetzes Gedolei HaTorah.

Known for his great devotion in Torah and fiery prayers, his marvelous explanations and his blessings. Many from around the world flocked to his doors in the Viznitz neighborhood, which he set up and established in his days which grew and strengthened significantly.

In the last six years, he fell ill, half his body was paralyzed limiting his writing almost completely. Some rare letters from him remain. He continued his Holy work with great dedication and fortitude until his death in the year of 1972.
