185 —סדרי פסח, מנהג טלית קטן, וחלוקת הגדות

B"H, Thursday, 1st of Nissan, 5705.

Shalom u'Vrachah!

In response to your letter: a) The arrangements for the upcoming Pesach will naturally depend on the health condition of my father-in-law, the Rebbe shlita. Therefore, it is not possible to state anything definite in advance. b) The corners of the tallit katan are also sewn underneath with silk; this is the custom in our Rebbe's household. c) I will deliver the pan as you requested. d) Regarding the Haggadahs (for yeshivas), their price is thirty agorot here; besides this, he receives a discount as usual, and they were sent yesterday. e) As for the sichos, I have already told you that my father-in-law, the Rebbe shlita, gives them over to be published with many additions; therefore there is a delay in this matter.

To conclude with words of Torah: My father-in-law, Admor ad sheyichyeh, related regarding your second question that Admor Hazaken would sew between the silk and wool of his tallit a piece of silk left from Alter Rebbe's garments or from tzt"z etc. Most often it was in the front right corner and near the holes.

With blessings for immediate teshuvah and immediate redemption and regards to all who inquire after me,
M. Schneerson
