Sacred and Awe-Inspiring: Piece of Straw (Stroi) from the Bed of the Noam Elimelech of Lizhensk.

Appearing of verso is the pedigree and how the Stroi came to the hands of the heirs' family: "I am writing down word for word as our father told me…" – a known and important family, the grandsons of his daughter Mrs. Mirish, to the famed Gaon Rabbi Eliyahu Shmuel Shmerler, the Rosh Yeshiva of Sanz, who received it from his father, who received it generation by generation from the Rebbetzin Mrs. Mirish. Signed at the end is Rabbi Yitzchak Pesach Shmerler Shlita, a descendant of Rabbeinu.
