Long interesting letter by Rabbi Chaim Shmulevitz, 1954
R. Chaim Leib Shmuelevitz (1902-1979), was born in Kovno to R. Alter Shmuelevitz, a son-in-law of the Alter of Novardok. He learned under his father and then under R. Shimon Shkop in Grodno where he was known as an Illui, being appointed as the Yeshiva’s youngest Maggid Shiur. In 1925, he joined the Mirrer Yeshiva and in 1930, he married the daughter of its Rosh Yeshiva R. Eliezer Yehuda Finkel. In 1936, he was appointed as a Rosh Yeshiva of the Mir Yeshiva, which he led with tremendous devotion through the tumultuous exile in Shanghai and subsequent reestablishment in Yerusholayim.
