Written to the Parnassim – elected officials stating a request…
"As we are travelling from city to city until Hashem sends us tranquillity in our Holy work of teaching youth "Halacha and Tosfos"…
{Can you} arrange a place for us to sleep so we should not have to burden with coming and going. If possible, if this is not possible please send us food for the way because we are short of funds and this would be a big Mitzvah…As we are on our way already."
Aryeh Leib son of Naphtali Hirsch Segel from Wengrub (Poland)
Yaakov son of Avigdor tof Tzanz.
Yehuda Leib son of Eliezer Torna (or Torla).
