They say that Rabbi Yisrael Meir immigrated to the Land of Israel "to the holy land of Petach Tikvah" and he is in need of monetary support. "It has been a long time since a member of our community has gone to live in the Holy Land, therefore we have come to pour our hearts out…"
At the margins of the letter, the signature of rabbi Zvi Hirsch Friedman, on eof the heads of the community, and the stamp of the community.
Condition: Good. Slits and tears.
