His personal stamp from Jerusalem appears five times at the beginning and end of the book.  After the passing of Rabbi Yosef Meir Kahana, the book was inherited by his son and successor, Rabbi Baruch Kahana Shlita, the Admor of Spinka-Antwerp, the son-in-law of the Admor Rabbi Yaakov Leiser of Pshevorsk.  Between the leaves of the book, an interesting Kvitel was found, in which the Rebbe Shlita mentions his entire family - his wife and children - for blessing, with detailed requests for each of them: Zivug, health, success in the Torah and Zera shel Kayma.  The Kvitel was placed by the Rebbe in the book, apparently due to his belief that the book is a Segulah book as stated by his grandfather, the Imrei Yosef of Spinka.  *** The Admor Rabbi Yosef Meir Kahana of Spinka-Jerusalem (1910-1978) the son of Rabbi Zvi Hirsch Av Beit Din of Spinka and grandson of the Admor Rabbi Yosef Meir Weiss, the Imrei Yosef of Spinka and founder of the Spinka Chassidut after whom he weas named.  In 1941 he immigrated to Eretz Yisrael. His maternal grandmother, Rebbetzin Sarah Shlomtze, immigrated to Eretz Yisrael in the 1930s, leaving behind her husband and children in Europe. With the outbreak of World War II, she sent her grandchildren the opportunity to obtain immigration certificates, and Rabbi Yosef Meir responded. For nearly two years she worked to secure the certificate, even declaring that her grandson was her son-in-law. Ultimately, an employee of the Jewish Agency, who was a Ziditchov Chaassid, met her, and upon hearing that she was the daughter of Rabbi Menachem Mendel of Ziditchov, assisted her in obtaining the certificate. In May 1941, Rabbi Yosef Meir arrived in theEretz Yisrael, just weeks before the deportation of the citizens of Ungvár to the Polish border; most of the deportees perished from hunger and disease, and the remainder were murdered by the Nazis. His Beit Midrash and yeshiva were named Imrei Yosef, after his illustrious grandfather, the first Admor of Spinka. Rabbi Yosef Meir adopted traditional Jerusalem attire and was closely aligned with the circles of the Eidah HaChareidis and Satmar Chassidut, alongside maintaining connections with other circles in the Chareidi world, including Agudas Yisrael, Vizhnitz Chassidut, and Belz Chassidut.  His son, the Admor Rabbi Baruch Kahana Shlita of Spinka-Antwerp , the son-in-law of Rabbei Yaakov Leiser of Pshevorsk.  The author Rabbi Yitzchak Isaac Eichenstein of Ziditchov (1805-1873) one of the leading Admorim and Mekubalim of his generation. The second Admor of Ziditchov.
