In a note to the reader, it states that these words were heard in the Bet ha-midrash of the Mesivta Rabenu Hayim Berlin and Kolel Gur Aryeh from the mouth of Maran ha-R. M., shelita and that within them are brought the Torah words of the Baal "Pahad Yitshak." I know that the Baal "Pahad Yitshak" is Rav Hutner. None of the current roshe ha-yeshivah have M. as a first initial. However, the current mashgiah ruhani is Mordekhai Zelig Shechter. Do people think he is the author of the work? If not, can someone tell me who Maran ha-R. M. might be? <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Many thanks in advance for any help you can provide!<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Aaron<o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
