P.S. For some reason the enclosed letter had not been mailed to you. In the meantime, you must have received some later letters, while your recent letter was also received. Thank you very much for the pleasant reports about the various Farbrengens. I trust that you will also have good news to report about your business activities.
P.P.S. Although this comes at the end, it is not because it is, G-d forbid, less important than the above, for perhaps it is even more important. It is that I hope a regular study of Iggeres HaTeshuvo has been started, either in the original, or in the translations (at present there are translations in Yiddish, English and French, and soon there will be an Italian translation). For the important thing is the study of this work and its contents, not the language in which it is studied.
To those who may need an additional stimulation in this direction, you can relate that during the last Yud-Tes Kislev Farbrengen in Kfar Chabad, with the participation of Pres. Shneur Zalmon Shazar, the President, in his concluding speech, urged all present to undertake the study of Iggeres HaTeshuvo, stating that he himself has a regular Shiur in it.
