The previous owner R. Chaim Pinchos Luria, Dayan of Lodz and author of Piskei Teshuvah writes on the opening blank leaf: “Kanithi Me’eth HaChasid …ben Admo’r Shlit’a MeGur M”H Abraham Mordechai.” Seemingly, the Imrei Emes’ father, the Sefas Emes was still alive at this time. This edition contains an approbation from the Chassidic Rabbi R. Abraham Chaim of Zlotchev. (The “Imrei Emeth,” Grand Rabbi of Gur. 1866-1948).
