Interesting Letter from Rabbi Shabtai Buhbut Av Beit Din of Beirut to Rabbi Uziel / Collection of Letters - Beirut
* Letter from Rabbi Shabtai Buhbut Av Bet Din of Beirut to Rabbi Ben-Zion Uziel. Beirut 1940.
Request for assisting a poor Jew, of Beirut, who is in prison.
In the margins of the letter Rabbi Buhbut writes about the issue of Abraham Felikman, a young Jew who was kidnapped while a child by Arabs. When he grew up he came to the Rabbi’s office in Beirut and stated that he was a Jewish captive and that he wished to return to his father, now living in Jerusalem [see attached material]. Rabbi Buhbut writes:” How happy I was that G-d helped us to return sons to their fathers” and tells that the people from the Arab village where he grew up “obtained for him a passport with a Muslim name.... nevertheless it was proved that the passport was forged, and people were found who admitted that he was kidnapped”.
Rabbi Uziel wrote on the letter two notes: "To write to the French Consul” and "to send for Mr Felikman…”.
* Attached: Large collection of postcards and letters that were sent from and to the city of Beirut. Correspondence of a Jewish family, between the years 1938-1943 [tens of letters, some in Hebrew, mostly in English].
