Letter by Rabbi Aryeh Leib HaKohen Popko, Son of the Chafetz Chaim – Concerning Book Trade Matters – Warsaw, Menachem Av 1932 “In all the days of my life I have been careful not to place the burden of my livelihood upon any person, and this time it was from Hashem that He placed it in the heart of Your Honor to offer your assistance before me. Blessed is Hashem; through acts of kindness below, we awaken the attribute of kindness above, to bestow all goodness upon all who come into the world. May our portion be among those who awaken it.” Signed: ”אריה ליב כהן בן החסיד האמיתי ר' ישראל מאיר הכהן יחיה” Rabbi Aryeh Leib HaKohen, Av Beis Din of Radin (1861–1939), was the eldest son and right hand of Maran the Chafetz Chaim.
