שלום וברכה!
...ז"ע נתקבל מכתבו שלאחרי הנ"ל והוברק לו וז"ל:
"במענה למכתבו יעזור להג'נרייטאר בכפר שנחוץ במאד. בברכה".
מנחם שניאורסאהן
(ולפלא הספק שלו מלכתחילה). ומובן אשר יפה שבת אחת קודם.
נדפסה ב"היכל מנחם" ח"א ע' מב.
להג'נרייטאר בכפר: ראה לעיל אגרת ט'קו, ובהנסמן בהערות שם.
B"H, 21 Adar 5726. Brooklyn.
Shalom u'Vrachah!
...In this context, your letter following the above was received and was relayed to him, and this is what was said: "In response to his letter, help with the generator in the village, which is very much needed. With blessing." Menachem Schneersohn (and it is surprising that he had any doubt about this from the outset).
And it is understood that it is better to do so even one Shabbos earlier.
Printed in "Heichal Menachem" Vol. I p. 42. Regarding the generator in the village: see above Letter T'ko, and as referenced in the notes there.
Summary
