Description
   Distressing appeal for financial assistance by R. Ezekiel Fleischman. In the flier R. Fleischman explains his position, family troubles, and lack of income. His family does not have what to eat, they are troubled from all sides. He was employed hanging poster announcements in Jerusalem synagogues, providing him a meager income, with a chronically ill wife, and now, people have come to take away even this work from him. He is now forced to appeal for assistance. The appeal has the signature of a large number of rabbis, among them R. Jacob Zevi Rivlin, R. Jacob Isaac Teitelbaum, R. Jacob Mandelbaum, R. A. Z. Vilniski, and many others.
