Three letters sent to the Rebbe of Satmar from the Or Yosef yeshiva in France.
• Letter (2 leaves) from R. Eliyahu Shneur, a dean of the yeshiva, and a letter from R. Gershon Liebman, leaders of the Novardok yeshiva movement. Fublaines (France), [ca. 1960s-1970s].
• Additional letter to the Rebbe of Satmar from R. Liebman's wife, requesting his assistance and support for marrying off her brother, a Holocaust survivor. Fublaines (France), 1961.
The letters were typewritten on the official stationery of the Or Yosef yeshiva, signed by the senders. R. Shneur thanks the Rebbe for his donation to the yeshiva's institutions and reports on the yeshiva's success "despite all the persecution" to teach Torah to hundreds of North African Jews and rescue them "from the evil of Zionism". However, he adds that, to his dismay, many other North African Jews were being attracted to Zionism.
R. Gershon, in his added letter, affirms what his disciple R. Shneur had written, and asks for the Rebbe's assistance with the increasingly large debts of the yeshiva due to the influx of the many new immigrants from North Africa.

R. Gershon Liebman (1905-1997), founder and leader of the Or Yosef network of Novardok yeshivot in France, and one of the greatest Novardok musar leaders of all times. R. Gershon arranged underground musar yeshivot in the ghettos and camps throughout the Holocaust, and established a Novardok yeshiva in Bergen-Belsen immediately after the war ended. In 1948, the yeshiva moved to France, where it expanded to a network of over 40 Torah and educational institutions.
