Letter of halachic responsum handwritten and signed by Rabbi "Chaim Kanievsky", who writes "according to the words of my father" [Rabbi Ya'akov Yisrael Kanievsky, author of Kehilot Ya'akov - the Steipler]. Bnei Brak, Iyar 1964.
The letter discusses the purchase of an apartment in a building housing non-religious residents who use the common elevator on Shabbat. The letter has additions told to the recipient, Rabbi Aharon Beifus, from Petach Tikva (in his handwriting).
At the beginning of the letter, Rabbi Chaim writes a concise answer, as is his usual practice, of one and a half rows. However, he erased that answer and writes a long response with the title "I am writing these things according to my father['s instructions]".
