An important letter in the handwriting and signature of the genius Shlomo Yaakov Shine Av Beit Din of Letskva, was sent to his friend the genius Rabbi Shlomo Nathan Kotler. 39 in Omer [1932].
In his letter, the genius opens up about Rabbi Shlomo Nathan Kotler's request that he write "To the excellent dear women" (we do not know exactly who he means), whose words make a great impression and his letters are precious to them and they keep them, and adds: "Will be able to tell the women I have admired for the delicate spirit of their soul and I am deeply encouraging them." Later on, the genius complains about his state of health, which is particularly hard - the weak of the eyes, which "makes me very sad" and that he has no one left to spend with holy words, and that this delays the publication of his writings. The genius goes on to say that he disagrees with his friend, who wrote that it is not enough to say "for matzaht Mitzva" to go out of the duty of eating matzah on the Seder night, and completely disagrees with him, Because that this is done by all the rabbis and geniuses, and that this is explicitly stated in the Mishna brura. And more matters.
