A letter about a marriage of a man to a divorcee, where his family opposes the marriage. The marriage was held in secret. The marriage was arranged by Rabbai Asher Sussman, one of the 'Etz Chaim' rabbis, and a leader of the 'General Committee of "Knesset Israel"'.
Later on a re-marriage was held with the participation of the family, by the instruction of Rabbi Zalman Kahane Shapira.
In this letter the writer, Chaim Grasesshtien, is protesting, the "great and terrible scandal that Is highly detrimental to family life and purity."
Condition: Very Good, small tears.
