0074 - Typewriter Signature

And obviously, we said yes, and he said that the Rebbe wants to, before the Eyal, have it settled from you that you signed that you are accepting upon yourself. So a settel was typed up, and I signed my name, and the other person didn't go to the mikveh that morning. So melee, he didn't sign his name, but he typed his name on the settel. And that's how we gave it in to Rabbi Chadakov, and he gave it to the Rebbe for the Eyal. When the Rebbe came back from the Eyal, right after Mincha, even though it was late already, and the Rebbe davved Mincha, and then he went in his room, and then davved Ma'ariv. But right after Mincha, Rabbi Chadakov called us in again. And Rabbi Chadakov says, shows us the settel that the Rebbe answered, wrote on the settel that we signed, that I signed, and he typed. And the Rebbe wrote on his signature, circled around his signature, which was typed. And the Rebbe said like this, more or less, this is the loshen.

So I wrote down on the settel that be'emis he's mikabel upon himself. The only thing is he had, I wrote that he didn't go to the mikveh that day. That's why he did that. And I'm signing in his name, and the Rebbe was mikabel it.
