Autograph long (3-page) letter with the full signature of Rebbe "Shmuel son of R. M.A. Weinberg", sent to his brother R. Noach Weinberg and to his relative R. Aharon. Slonim, 1882. Letter of advice and blessings, containing words of encouragement and inspiration to his relative R. Aharon, who evidently had traveled with R. Noach to seek medical care. Several times in the letter, he mentions his grandfather the Rebbe, author of Yesod HaAvodah, and urges his friend to make appropriate efforts for his cure and to sustain himself with faith and joy: "…G-d should listen to your entreaties and send a speedy recovery and you should be healthy… Just strengthen your faith in the good G-d and in the merit of my father the Rebbe and his prayers which do not go unanswered you will surely receive all good…". Further in the letter, he turns to his brother to take care of their ill friend with compassion and love and to make him happy, and he gives him advice and practical instructions on medical matters as "I have understood from the words of the Rebbe". After his signature, he sends regards from their grandfather the Rebbe, author of Yesod HaAvodah: "Our grandfather… sends his regards and always mentions you favorably, and all our community… send their loving regards…". On the verso are two additions, one with the tidings that a number of leading Chassidim reached Eretz Israel and celebrated the Festival of Shavuot in Jerusalem, "and we await each day for their arrival in Tiberias", and the other addition is regards sent to R. Noach from Tiberias from his sons Yitzchak Matityahu and Shmuel. One addition is signed with the acronym HKS [HaKatan Shmuel]. The second Slonim Rebbe, R. Shmuel Weinberg author of Divrei Shmuel (1850-1916), was the grandson of the first Rebbe of Slonim, R. Avraham Weinberg, author of Yesod HaAvodah. In 1884 at the age of 34, R. Shmuel was appointed Rebbe succeeding his grandfather. He headed the Reisen Kollel in Eretz Israel, and sent many funds to support the yishuv in Tiberias, which was mainly settled by Slonim Chassidim. In 1916, his eldest son, R. Yissachar Leib Weinberg (1873-1928, Encyclopedia L'Chassidut, Vol. 2, pp. 466-467) succeeded his father as Rebbe of Slonim, together with his younger brother R. Avraham Weinberg (1884-1933, Encyclopedia L'Chassidut, Vol. 1, pp. 21-22), author of Beit Avraham, who served as Rebbe in Baranovichi. [3] pages, 21 cm. Fair condition. Wear and tears with minor restorations, not affecting text.
