"אחרי דרישת שלומכם בטוב אבא למאדות בתשבתחות ובברכת מעלת כבודו הקדוש ה’ ישלם גמולכם ככם אלף פעמים על כל הטוב והחסד אשר עשיתם גם את אחותינו הצנוע המ’ חיילא שתחיה, ויהא לכם… מזל טוב ויברך אתכם השם בברכת אבותינו בכל מכול כול וברוב עוז ושלום ויכפול ימי מעכה"ק מרוב טוב שמחה ונחת ליראות עוד פני השכינה מבגא"צ. גיסו המצפה לשימוע מכם בשורות טובות וכל טוב". (After inquiring about your well-being, with thanks and blessing, may G-d repay you thousand fold for all the good and charity you did, and also our righteous sister Chayla shetichya, and you shall have…. good luck and G-d shall bless you with the blessings of our forth fathers with all good and peace……your brother-in-law who waits to hear from you good news and all the best.)
