Letter in the handwriting and signature of the Rabbi of London, Rabbi Hanoch Dov Padwa - 1958. Addressed to Rabbi David Weisbrod.

In his letter he reinforces the opinion of Rabbi David Weisbrod, that everything the rabbis advised him was only for the benefit of the thing, and not for any other intention. And 'if on occasion he comes again to here I will add an explanation to it'.

The Gaon Rabbi Hanoch Dov Padwa - [1908-2000], author of the Responsa "Hashav HaEfod", Av Beit Din of the Association of Haredi Communities in London. When he immigrated to Eretz Israel settled in Jerusalem and he became close to the greatest rabbis, including Rabbi Yosef Zvi Dushinsky Av Beit Din of Jerusalem, Rabbi Dov Berish Weidenfeld of Tzebin and Rabbi Shimshon Aharon Polonsky of Tplik. He was appointed as a rabbi in the Haredi community, and as a rabbi in the Beit Rand neighborhoods, Beit Broida, and the Knesset Israel neighborhood. When the tshibin Rabbe founded the Kochav Yaakov Yeshiva in Jerusalem, he called on Rabbi Hanoch Dov to serve as Rosh Yeshiva. In 1956, he was called to serve as Av Beit Din of the Association of Haredi Communities in London, a position that united all the Haredi communities in the city, in which Rabbi Hanoch Dov served until his death.
