summary

Entire volume replete with very extensive marginal notes in a learned Ashkenazic 19th-century hand. Although the writer is nameless, he was clearly a most talented scholar. His notes make detailed references to the Mishnah, Talmud Bavli, Talmud Yerushalmi, Sifra etc. Unusually however, nowhere does he cite later works (Achronim)
