Letter 17 י"ז

Peace and blessing and all good forever — to his honor — my beloved, my dear, my precious — from the precious and faithful Breslover Chassidim[מאנ"ש הנאמנים = מאנשי שלומינו הנאמנים — "the faithful ones from our Chassidim." נאמנים = faithful, reliable, steadfast — the highest trust.] — who occupy themselves with the needs of the community — and are connected to our holy master the Rebbe — and long for him and his matters — the revered Chassid and so on — his honor, his splendor, his glory, our master Rabbi Tzvi Yosef Vasilefsky[כמהר"ר = כבוד מורינו הרב רבי — the full salutation honorific.], may his light shine, may G-d protect him — and all his household[כב"ב = וכל בני ביתו — "and all the members of his household."], may they live — and all those attached to him, may they live. And behold I am praying for you and mentioning you for good every day — and I have performed a pidyon for you — and for R' Tzvi son of Mirel Dvorah Reichman, may his light shine — and for R'... may his light shine — from the precious Breslover Chassidim, may they live — and I mention you for good each and every day.
