The letter was written in 1935 and sent to Eretz Yisrael. In the letter, Rabbi Freund writes that the maiden Sheindel Deutsch had only registered herself by the local municipality as married because she wanted to emigrate to Eretz Yisrael, and at the time only married people were granted entry there.
