Exchange with Mrs. Feldman about Distributing "A Hedge of Roses" to a Family Purity Group (1966)
Gentlemen: For the past three years, our Ladies' Auxiliary of the Mikvah of Baltimore jointly with the Women's Branch U.O.J.C. has been sponsoring public lectures on the subject of Taharas Hamishpocho with well-known out-of-town speakers. (Actually our organization does the work but for various advantages for both organizations, we sponsor it jointly.) ב"ה we've been quite successful in getting a fine response from the community. We usually average between 200 and 300 people. After the lecture, we distribute booklets on the subject. We've just received the booklet by Rabbi Norman Lamm on this topic, and from what I've read so far, am extremely pleased with this book.

This money goes towards the upkeep of the Mikvah.Would you please let me know what would be the minimum charge for Rabbi Lamm's book and whether there is any possibility of receiving some as a con-tribution towards our projects.I am the cultural chairman of our organization and have been chairman of these lectures for the past few years. I've also been conducting lectures on this topic to smaller groups.We would be sincerely appreciative for any cooperation you can offer us. Since this year's lecture is scheduled׳-(^׳/cfor Sunday, June 5th, we would appreciate you giving t…

Letter to Philip Feldheim about R. Lamm's Appointment to YU Presidency (1976)
Dear Mr. Feldheim: I just noticed the ad you placed in a recent issue of Hadoar, congratulating me upon my election to the presidency of Yeshiva. I hope some day to deserve the accolades you have bestowed upon me, and I am grateful to you for your warm blessings. Please give my fondest regards to your wife and children and to Rabbi Lasdun, for a year of health and happiness, of creativity and redemption for all Israel. Cordially yours, Norman Lamm NL
