Has anyone been able to find an electronic copy of this memoir by Rabbi D. Leimdörfer? I am reading the book Židé v Bytči (Jews in Bytča) by Pavel Král (https://www.databazeknih.cz/knihy/zide-v-bytci-107979) and at page 12 there is a reference to the memoirs of the Rabbi, describing life in Hlinik in the second half of the 19th Century. It seems to be a very rare book held in a library in Japan and and the National Library of the Czech Republic. The first three pages of the book are reproduced at pages 120-122 of Král's book, with references to Leopold Popper, the Neuberger family (my ancestors), and members of the Singer and Rosenzwig families.

Best regards,
Martin
