Description		    Letter by the brothers R. Abraham Dov and R. David Twersky (1872-1950) sons of R. Menahem Nahum Twersky, Admor of Rotmistrovka . They both resided in Jerusalem and each refused the post of Admor so as not to insult the other. Descendant of the Chernobyler Hasidic Dynasty, they succeeded their father as Rotmistrovka Rebbe in Erez Israel. R. David, an erudite Talmudical scholar, attracted large audiences to his scholarly lectures.
