Letter signed by Rabbi Chaim Ozer Grodzinski. Vilna, Shevat 1940. Scribal writing, one line handwritten and signed by Rabbi Chaim Ozer. Sent to England to Rabbi Isser Yehuda Unterman, who at that time served as Av Beit Din in Liverpool. The letter is about sending and distributing funds to support the many yeshivot that were stationed at that time in Vilna: Mir and Kleck Yeshivot and for Va'ad HaYeshivot. Funds “for distribution by the Gryz of Brisk”, and funds "for the family of Rabbi B.D. Leibowitz". Also mentioned is "Our friend Rabbi Y. Abramsky" who was the primary representative of Rabbi Chaim Ozer in England of fundraising for rescue work. At that time, thousands of yeshiva students and families of rabbis stayed in Vilna which had just become the capital of independent Lithuania. They arrived there following the instructions of Rabbi Chaim Ozer, rabbi and leader of the Torah Jewry in Lithuania and spearhead of the whole yeshiva world. He went to tremendous lengths to raise money from all over the world to provide for the yeshiva students and for the rabbis who escaped to Vilna but in the midst of the war, he died on the 5th of Av 1940. Official stationery, 29 cm. Good condition.
