By the Grace of G-d18th of Adar I, 5736 Brooklyn, N. Y.

Blessing and Greeting:

    I was pleased to receive your regards recently through our mutual friend, Rabbi Kazarnovsky. Though I heard no details from him, I assume that "no news is good news," and I trust that this letter will find you and yours in good health and in happy frame of mind.

    All the more so since we are now in the joyous and auspicious month of Adar — and this year, a Jewish Leap Year, we have two auspicious months of Adar. In your case there is also the added auspiciousness of your consistent help to the sacred institutions founded and conducted in the spirit of my saintly father-in-law of blessed memory — at whose holy resting place you will again be remembered — particularly in Kfar Chabad.

    May G-d grant that you continue your good work in good health and happy circumstances, and may you always have good news to report.

With blessing,

M. Schneerson
