Letter from Joy and Irwin Kadaner to Elie Wiesel regarding his books and a request for autographs
Joy and Irwin Kadaner write to Professor Elie Wiesel, recalling a past kindness he did for their family after his book "Open Heart" was published. They inform him that for Pesach, they have purchased several of his books: a Haggadah with his commentary and illustrations by Mr. Padwalh, and copies of "Souls on Fire" and "Messenger of G-d" for their nephew, Derek, who has shown an interest in Chasidism and Jewish storytelling. The Kadaners express their admiration for his work, agreeing with his sentiment that Pesach is a "cry for compassion" and a "story of hope." They conclude the letter by asking Professor Wiesel if he would be willing to personalize and sign three enclosed bookplates: two for their nephew Derek, and one for their own personal Haggadah. They enclose a reply envelope and state that a simple signature would also be acceptable. They wish him and his family well.

Letter from Eli to Elie regarding committee formation for annual activities
This letter, dated 1983, is from Eli to Elie. Eli suggests forming a small ad hoc committee (two or three people) to plan the Council's annual activities in advance, to avoid being unprepared for significant events. Eli cites "the anniversary of Hitler's ascent to power" as a relevant example. The author acknowledges Elie's potential reservations about committees but believes this particular one will be beneficial and cost-effective. The letter concludes with Eli expressing gratitude for Elie's words.
