Important, beautiful letter about a shaliach l’holchah for a get . Signed and stamped by the Admo”r Rabbi Mordechai Menachem Mendel Kalisch of Warka. Vorke, 1934.
The letter was addressed by the rebbe to the beit din in Jerusalem, where the get was sent via a shalich l’holchah from the husband to the wife, who resided in the town of Vorka. The husband also sent a sum of money for his ex-wife, apparently the amount of her ketubah. The Vorka rebbe informs the beit din in Jerusalem “I have carried out your mission.” The siddur get was handed over by the rebbe to the av beit din of the town who delivered it to the wife as required by Torah law, along with the funds sent by the husband, which were delivered to the wife personally by the rebbe, for which he received a receipt from her.
