Reme"tz Responsa. "Section one, with the laws of Shulchan Aruch Orech Chaim and Yoreh Deah" by Rabbi Meir Zvi ben Gavriel Wittmeyer av"d Sambor and the area. The title page notes that printing started in the summer of 1870 and was finished in Iyar 1872. First edition, printed in the author's lifetime – Przemysl. The work opens with a few homilies for the High Holidays by the author. [6], 61, [3], 90, [2] leaves. Separate pagination for Yoreh Deah with different paper, old binding, various stains, minimal worming holes, overall fine condition. Title page bears an owner stamp of Rabbi Avraham Moshe Babad av"d of Gura Humora along with the notation "as our sages said to write on the book." An additional notation: שייך לר' רפאל האמור מפחארין. The endpaper bears the notation: "HaRav HaGaon…Yaakov Gumart av"d Kadikula who is mentioned in siman 44, letter 5 (Orech Chaim)." We've checked and found that this personality is indeed mentioned in that location. One handwritten correction in the body of the work.

Rabbi Avraham Moshe Babad (1900-1980) was the son of Rabbi Menachem Mendel Babad, and a rabbi and chassidic rosh yeshiva in Bukovina and Israel, a student of the Gaon Rabbi Meir Arik of Tornov. He inherited his father’s position, and after WWII tried to immigrate to Israel but was sent to Cyprus in 1948 by the British, where he served as rabbi of the detention camp. After making it to Israel he was in constant contact with the Chazon Ish. Around 1952 he was appointed for a time as the Rosh Yeshiva of Yechel Yisrael of the Seret-Vizhnitz Chassidic community, led by his son-in-law Admor Rabbi Baruch Hager.
