Best regards to the family and my best wishes to you for a happy and Kosher Pesach. Very cordially yours, Haskel Lookstein.

It will fill a great need and do much to advance the institution intended. Congratulations, and a very happy and kosher Passover to you. Very cordially yours, Joseph H. Lookstein.

Letter from Haham Gaon about "A Hedge of Roses" (1966)

Dear Haham Gaon: Although I have not received any response yet to my previous confidential note, I do want to communicate with you now concerning the Indian problem. When I returned from India in February, I sent you a copy of the Gittin currently in use by the Bene Israel. It will be most beneficial to the Jewish community in India to receive from you or your office advice concerning the proper procedure to be followed, and most especially, correct copies of Gittin. Mr. Abraham Jhirad of the UOJCI has informed me that several requests for this information have not yet received any response.Would you be kind enough, Dr. Gaon, to respond to them and satisfy their legitimate requests?With all best wishes,Sincerely yours,Rabbi Norman Lamm
