Original letter, Igerest Kodesh, handwritten and signed by the Tzemach Tzeddek, citing the words of his grandfather the Admor HaZaken Ba’al HaTanya and the Shulchan Aruch, about the progression of Midos HaElyonos and the awakening of Midas HaRachamim after a fire.
Letter, Igeres Kodesh, whose content is well-known from an additional Igeres, in which the Rebbe the Tzemach Tzeddek intorduces his grandfather’s words supporting and comforting the residents of a town which suffered a fire that had almost completely destroyed it.
In this letter, to the residents of Lefliya, the Tzemach Tzeddek writes almost word for word what he wrote to the residents of Disno, which had also suffered a fire. His letter to the residents of Disno was published and the holy Rebbe himself frequently cited it.
This original letter, handwritten by the Rebbe the Tzemach Tzeddek himslef and containing some textual variations compared to the letter to the residents of Disno, was inherited by his holy grandson the Admor the holy Rav Rabbi Shemarya of Bobroisk, the son of the Admor the Maharil of Kopust the Tzemach Tzeddek’s son.
Please refer to the Hebrew catalog text for the version of this letter.
The Tzemach Tzeddek added his pure handwritten signature to the letter.

His sefer Shut Tzemach Tzeddek hints to his name [מנחם בגימטריא צמח, מענדל בגימטריא צדק]. He authored many additional seforim in Halacha and Chassidus, very deep and extensive.
