Handwritten leaf, document of testimony on behalf of the administrators of the Ancona Jewish community, regarding the sale of a plot in the Ancona cemetery, to the Chida and to his son R. Refael Yeshaya Azulai. Ancona (Italy), 1797.
Hebrew, in cursive Italian script. With Italian signatures of eight administrators; among them: Sanson Consolo, Aaron [?] Seppili, D. Morpurgo (probably David Morpurgo, a prominent member of Jewish community), Samuel Moise Coen Cagli, Isach Seb. Costantini. On the margins of the second page is an official authorization in Italian.
The documents states that two Jews from Ancona, "Señor Shabtai Mondolofi" and "Señor Avraham Tirani" have in their possession a sum of money "which a person dedicated from his possessions" for establishing a fund to benefit "The great Rabbi, wonder of our generation, R. Chaim Yosef David Azulai and to his son R. Refael Yeshaya Azulai". With this money, the community sold the Chida and his son "six cubits of property in the city cemetery". Also written is that the community rented the aforementioned property from the Chida and from his son and paid rental fees for two months.
At that time, the Chida resided in Livorno, however he had a strong influence on the Ancona community as well (see for example: Benayahu, R. Chaim Yosef David Azulai, p. 66). In 1785, after R. Avraham Yisrael, Rabbi of Ancona died, the leaders of the community applied to the Chida requesting that he serve as rabbi of their city. The Chida refused, but hinted that his son R. Refael Yeshaya is suited for the position. R. Refael Yeshaya Azulai served as Rabbi of Ancona from 1787 until his death in 1826.
Leaf, [2] written pages. 26 cm. Good condition. Stains. Minor tears from ink erosion. Folding marks.

Interesting letter of recommendation in flowery language, with the calligraphic signature of R. Yisrael Moshe Chazan. Rome, Adar Bet 1848.
Recommendation for arranging provisions of matzot and food for Passover for Jewish soldiers in the army of Pope Pius IX, during the war for the freedom and unification of Italy at the period of the Spring of Nations. The young man Yehuda son of Moshe Livoli is mentioned In the letter, stating that he is a soldier "among the war ranks… against all those who rise against Italy which lovingly supports our mighty compassionate king His Majesty Pope Pius IX".
In 1848, nationalist revolutionary uprisings spread throughout Europe. This period is known as the Spring of Nations. Italy at that time was divided into many states and several movements aspired to unite Italy under their leadership - a Catholic movement which desired to unite Italy under the leadership of Pope Pius IX, a Democratic movement led by Giuseppe Mazzini, and a monarchist movement aspiring to unify Italy under the House of Savoy. After the defeat of the Italians in North-Italy by Austrian forces, Mazzini supporters declared a republic in Rome and in Venice and the Pope was forced to exile.
R. Yisrael Moshe Chazan (1808-1863), grandson of the Chikrei Lev was born in Izmir and in 1811, at the age of 3, moved to Jerusalem with his father R. Eliezer Chazan. At a young age he became a dayan in Jerusalem; in 1848 - Rabbi of Rome and in 1852 - Rabbi of Corfu. In 1857, he moved to Alexandria in Egypt and in 1862 returned to Jerusalem. He was accustomed to sign his glosses with the Hebrew acronym "Mashiach". He was an exceptional Torah scholar and authored many books including: Nachalah L'Yisrael, Kin'at Zion, Kedushat Yom Tov - about the polemic of the second day of festivals in the Diaspora. His important book Kerach shel Rome, contains responsa from the time he served in the rabbinate of Rome.
Leaf, 33 cm. Good-fair condition. Open tears (not affecting text).

Derech Chaim V'Tochachat Mussar Haskel, "Sha'ar HaTeshuva" and "Sha'ar HaTefillah". Chassidic essays by the "Middle" Rebbe, R. Dov Ber Schneersohn. Kapust (Kopys) [1819].
The first 1819 Kapust edition has three variants with different paginations. According to the official bibliography of the Otzar HaChassidim K.H.T (Karnei Hod Torah) edition (Derech Chaim, p. 117), the three editions were printed in Kapust in 1819 and thus they are also recorded in Stefansky Chassidut, no. 138. However, Haberman in his listing in Sha'arei Chabad (Alei Ayin, 1952) writes that "It seems that this was printed in Lvov in c. 1850". R. Shalom Duber Levine in his essay on this edition (Yagdil Torah - Chabad, Year 8, Issue 59, pp. 247-254) disagrees and writes that this edition was printed in Russia-Poland or in Kapust, in an underground Chabad printing press which was established during the 1837 decree prohibiting publishing Jewish books. In this printing press, only five books were printed with forged censor authorizations and with fake dates of printing. The title pages of each of these five printings bear an old decoration originating in a Russian printing press which was closed at that time.
