Letters contents: Concerning the question of the kashrut of a Get (divorce) send by a messenger, and before reaching the women the husband regretted and asked to cancel it, but right afterwards he requested to make the Get kosher and said will give another divorce if this one will not be accepted.

In this letter, the 'Beit Ephraim' is requested to search every way to permit the divorce and return his answer. "נא ונא לעשות זאת למעני ובשביל תקנת עגונות".
