D'rush V'Chidush Rabbi Akiva Eger. Volume 2, novellae [on Tractate Berachot and Seder Mo'ed, and Tractates Yevamot and Ketubot] and homiletics. "As printed in Warsaw" [Szczecin, 1860].
Stamps of Rebbe "Yechezkel Rabbi of Dej and its region" and "… Rabbi of M. Abaújvár and its region", and stamps of his son Rebbe "Ya'akov Elimelech Panet Rabbi of Dej and its region, head and chairman of Arzot HaChaim Jerusalem, Safed Tiberias, of Kollel Transylvania and Suliţa".
On one leaf appears a handwritten gloss [slightly cutoff], apparently in the handwriting of Rebbe Yechezkel Panet: "And I wonder about his words that are opposed to the words of the Talmud…this needs much research".
