Letter by Rabbi Yoel ben Rabbi Ze’ev Wolf Ginzburg to Rabbi Baruch Mordechai [Lifshitz]. Jonava, [1851]. 

"My gratitude and thanks a million … for honoring me with his confirmation … he friend who is anxious to speak to him face-to-face soon" – letter of gratitude and appreciation by Rabbi Yoel Ginzburg to Rabbi Baruch Mordechai [Lifshitz]. Jonava, [1851]. 

[1] leaf, 17 cm. Manuscript. Enclosed is a typewritten version of the letter. 

Rabbi Yoel Ginzburg, the son of Rabbi Ze’ev Wolf ben Rabbi Klonimus Ginzburg author of Sefer Ner Tamid (Warsaw, 1887) and a descendant of Rabbi Naftali Hirtz Ginzburg author of Sefer Naftali Svah Ratzon (Hamburg, 1708). Was a Maggid Meisharim in several communities including the community of Visaky near Vilna. 

Rabbi Baruch Mordechai of the Jonava community near Vilna is apparently Rabbi Baruch Mordechai Lifshitz (1809-1885) who was Av Beis Din of several communities, including the Wołkowysk community (today in Belarus), author of the Seforim Bris Yaakov Shut (Warsaw, 1876-1877) and Beis Mordechai (Warsaw, 1881). 

Stains, fold marks, a small perforation not affecting the text, fair-good condition.
