Letters from Lida - 21

Dear Children!

Your letter brought me some peace, before that I was worrying very much. From you letter I can see that Dorechka continues to be stubborn, and we thought that after her arrival in Palestine she would change her view of life. And how does she feel now, did she get better? I assumed that because of all her worries, her nerves are not good  <she is not well psychologically>, and that’s why she does everything her way and does not follow your advice, but I hope that as soon as she gets well and calms down, she will start to view life differently. Right now we are waiting for everything to calm down with you, and then that your court case would be over etc. You will learn about all our news from the letter that I am writing to Dora. We are very-very happy that, thank God, got better, God give her health. May you all be healthy and happy, with wishes of happiness, your loving mama Revekka.

Dora made aliyyah in 1936, by which time she was considerably older than Fanya had been when she left home.  This letter must be from 1936.
