Regulations of the Kloiz of the Jikov Hassidim of London - Yiddish - 1903-1929
Regulations of the Kloiz and notebook of the community of the Beit Midrash of the Rebbe, Rabbi Alter Yechezkel Eliyahu Horowitz of Jikov. The regulations are printed in bold letters and after them the notebook of the community: handwritten leaves with a description of events and the funds of the Kloiz.
Regulation 13 refers to the saying of "Mi She'Berach" for the Rebbe by each of the Olim to the Torah: "Every member, when he is called up to the reading of the Torah, must say " Mi She'Berach" for the Rebbe, Rabbi Alter Yechezkel Horowitz Av Beit Din of Jikov…"
Additional regulations deal with membership fees, the structure of the Kloiz committee and the election of Gabaim.

The document is signed by Reb Zvi Izrael, Reb Zvi Elimelech Peterzil, Reb Nachman Artiz, Reb Pesach Shlisel, Reb David Alter, Reb Mordechai Mez, Reb Dov Karz, Reb Elyakim Loifer, Reb Moshe Hollander, Reb Efrayim Nissbaum, Reb Yisrael Moshe Berenknaf.

The official handwritten notebook of the community contains protocols of the decisions of the community council regarding various appointments, Kibbudim on Sabbath and Holy Days, detailed lists of prayer leaders and the men called up to read the Torah during the High Holidays, new members, donations, official agreements for buying Torah scroll and more.
The notebook contains precise lists of the community during the years 1903-1929.

It seem sthat during the Holocaust, the Beit Midrash had closed. However, dozens of years later, the Rebbe, Rabbi Yehuda of Jikov moved to London tolive with his Hassidim and there he died and was buried.

An important item relating to the history of the Kloiz of Jikov and the Jewish community of London.
