Greetings and blessings,

In response to your letter:

..You should return to your country as soon as possible. It is surprising that you don’t mention anything about this. Please inform me via a reply.

c) The pan2concerning the ... family will be read at the holy gravesite.3 Please clarify, in an appropriate manner, if she observes taharas [hamishpachah] as required and if their marriage did not involve infringement of the honor of a Jewish woman or the like from his side. Please inform me regarding this.

d) Please inform me of the health of the student Moshe ben Pericha.

e) Please inform [me] concerning the situation in Midlet with regard to the studies and the renovation of the building. On the surface, participation in half the expenses of such a project is more than what is appropriate, particularly since the place is distant. Discuss [the matter] with R. Benyamin Gorodetzky.4 ...

With blessings for success in your holy work; awaiting a reply concerning all the above,

M. Schneerson

Your suggestion to bring one of our [people] as a scribe and a ritual slaughterer for your community is correct, as is [the suggestion] that R. Saadia Liberov should come, for it is necessary to think about beginning work in Casa[blanca] and other places. Therefore please inform R. Benyamin Gorodetzky directly concerning the names of the people to mention [together] with their wives, and all the other information necessary for entrance visas.
