By the Grace of G‑d22nd of Elul, 5723Brooklyn, N. Y.

Greeting and Blessing:

I am in receipt of your letters, and subsequently I was also pleased to receive your regards through your son, daughter and son-in-law. May G‑d grant that everything turns out satisfactorily in respect to everyone, both materially and spiritually. Especially, as we have just observed the 18th of Elul, and are approaching the new year, which will surely bring everyone true happiness in every respect.

I was pleased to read that the controversy regarding the new Shul has been settled in a peaceful way.¹

With the blessing of Kesivo VaChasimo Toivo,

M. Schneerson

P.S. With reference to the Notes, I referred the matter to Rabbi Hodakov who is handling this and he will communicate with you.
