13 Teves 5721

Here is a letter from the Rebbe to Mrs. Einbinder of New Haven advising her to purchase a ready built home and make alterations rather than buy a plot of land and build a new house.

Mashma'as

Here are three letters that remind us of the level of obedience that existed in the earlier years of the Rebbe's nesius. The first letter is a letter from the hanholo of Yeshivas Tomchei Tmimim in Montreal to the Rebbe's mazkirus asking for permission for seven bochurim to travel to the Rebbe for Rosh Hashona 5714.

The other two letters are from Rabbi Chadakov to the hanholo giving permission for two bochurim to stay in NY.

Sorry for the lengthy delay in posting.

Here is part one of a hagoho of the Rebbe on a notice by the maareches of Ho'oros Ubiurim:


Afterwards, the maareches prepared the notice with the Rebbe's hagohos for the gilyon of Parshas Vayechi 5743 and the Rebbe added more hagohos:

Bar Mitzvah Maamer 12 Tammuz 5653

Here is a handwritten copy of the famous bar mitzvah maamer isah b'medrash tillim from the Frierdike Rebbe's bar mitzvah in 5653. In addition, there are many notes in the Rebbe's ksav yad. I'm sure this has been printed before, please indicate in the comments where it was printed. If anyone knows who wrote the hanocho please let me know too.

Correcting the corrections

Here is an answer from the Rebbe to a suggestion to correct an omission from the sicha of parshas Behaaloscho to be included in the sicha of parshas Shlach.

?"למה להוסיף בהפחדות"

In a letter that was to be printed in "Hamo'or" (dated 13 Iyar, 5741) which read: "מכתב נורא", ("a awe-inspiring letter"), the Rebbe asks: "למה להוסיף בהפחדות" ("why add fright?") , and later corrected it to read: "מכתב מיוחד" ("a special letter").

Michtav with Hagoho

I'm sorry I haven't posted for a while, I've decided to be much more easy going with what I post and not check whether it is printed etc. as it takes me too long and ends up being an obstacle to posting regularly. I've realised that it's not the end of the world if it has already been printed and it is a good way of finding out by posting it here.

Here is a letter sent to R' Volf Greenglass dated 17th Sivan 5711, it is printed in Igros Kodesh v.4 p. 330. There are some hagohos in the Rebbe's ksav yad kodesh.

In addition there is mention of the Sefer Torah Lekabolas Pnei Moshiach, the Rebbe is suprised that some of the tmimim hadn't yet purchased letters. It would seem there is a part of the letter missing if anyone has that part please share.

What are you waiting for!!
