Teveth 18, 5723
Rabbi Aaron Dov Sufrin

London N. 16, England
Greeting and Blessing;
We wish to point out in the enclosure of your recent letter, in the paper entitled "Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi," on page two, paragraph beginning ”The fundamental,” you state as follows:
"The fundamental teachings of Chabad were not for the followers of the Alter Rebbe, etc."
This statement is obviously erroneous, certainly inadvertently, and should read. "were not only for the followers etc.”
Copies of this page should be corrected before distribution.
Very sincerely,
Rabbi M. A. Hodakov
The sentence following the one mentioned above, stating: "That the love of G-d shows itself only by the love of ones fellow Jew;" is not accurately stated, for the love of G-d may show itself in other ways. What you probably mean is that it is not complete without Ahavas Yisroel.
