Letter by the Gaon Rabbi Binyomin Wolf Sussman Sofer of Budapest, a disciple of Maran the Chasam Sofer, to his brother-in-law the Gaon Rabbi Yaakov Chaim Fleishmanen, the Rav of Zsámbék.

The letter deals mainly with the distribution of his books and booklets and contains a lengthy apology for not having sent his brother-in-law halachic responsa for a long time. 

On its verso, a letter to his mother-in-law the Rebbetzin describing the progress of his important children in the Torah and noting with satisfaction that they study Torah at the ‘Schule’ synagogues and Batei Midrash.
