A handwritten table listing names of nine Jewish orphans from Łańcut who arrived in Palestine with the "Tehran Children". Next to the names of the children appear names of relatives of the orphans in Łańcut, names of places in the country where they were lodged (among them Givat Brenner, Beit Yehoshua and the religious youth village by Kfar Hassidim), comments, and more.
On the other side of the leaf appears a copying (in handwriting) of a response from Rabbi Shmuel Mohilever about the rules of Mikve. This response was printed in the book "Khikre Halacha She'elot uTeshuvot" by Rabbi Shmuel Mohilever (with comments ""Vezot LeYehudah" by Rabbi I.L. Hacohen Fishman), published by "Mossad HaRav Kook", Jerusalem, 1944.
"Tehran Children" is the name used to refer to a group of Polish Jewish children, holocaust survivors, who were brought to Palestine by the Jewish Agency after staying in a camp which was established for them in Tehran (Iran).
