B״H Adar 5, 5723

Greeting and Blessing:

I am in receipt of your letter of Shevat 26.

With regard to finding a position here for you, not only is it quite difficult to find a good position here, but in your case there would be additional complications in obtaining permission from immigration authorities for you to work here, inasmuch as you are not an American citizen. I trust that when you will finish your studies you will be able to find a suitable position in England.

What I wrote you some time ago not to buy any manuscripts,¹ holds true with regard to the one you mention in your letter, because most of these manuscripts are here.

With best wishes for a joyous Purim,

Sincerely,

Rabbi M. A. Hodakov

Director
