Paragraph 1    These two sheets of papers are a conglomeration of various writings.The first sheet consists of six paragraphs. Three are in English and the other three in Yiddish. The English paragraphs refer to those who want to stop the spreading of Torah law and do not sponsor books that R. Reingewirtz has written and which are published as "Torah Reaction Books". The author states that all future wars can be prevented if Jews read "The 365 Questions and Answers and How to Do Away with Crime and Local and National Disasters to Become Impossible." (This includes not using the secular, ie. Christian, dates on synagogue correspondence).

The second sheet is entirely in Yiddish and is entitled ועת צרה היא ליעקב and is basically against a polemic against those Jews who do not observe family purity and who do not study books on that topic (including one which the author mentions that he has written entitled Kedushat Shabbat ve-Taharat Ha Mishpaha).
