It was with great sorrow that I read the saddening news about the death of Fighter Yakutiel Dobrovich, RIP. The good things that you wrote, Mr. Taubkin, are a testimony of this Hebrew regiment man's important national activities. I hereby thank you again for writing to me and telling me about the virtues of this Fighter for Zion." Fine.
