Honored Donors (3)
The book Avot de-Rabbi Natan ( מסכת אבות דרבי נתן)   by Eliyahu son of Avraham, printed 1833 in Vilna and Hrodna, contains a list of donors supporting its printing:

• Avraham, son of Yaakov
• Avraham, son of Rabbi M”A Halevi
• Beralkhya Berekh, son of Yaakov
• Yehuda Yudl, son of Shimshon
• Yudl, son of Klonimus K
• Mordekhai , son of Meir Veinshtein
• Meir, son of Yaakov
• Moshe Aharon, son of Mordekhai
• Pinkhas Zelig, son of Shaul Palia
• Tzvi Ar'ye, son of Meir Radavtzer
• Tzvi son of MHRY"A Halevi Horwitz from Tiktin
• Sha’ul, son of Mordekhai A”Sh
• Shimon, son of Zalman Shlomo
• Shmuel Yitzkhak, son of Moshe

Each of these names is preceded in the original text by מ' [M’ ], a short form of מורנו=our teacher. Standing alone, this is an honorary title for a person and not an official status.



Notes: Though the text specifies only Visoki, rather than Visoki d'Lita, a prior list gives names from Kamenets, and a subsequent one lists donors from Volchin, strong evidence that these donors are from our Wysokie Litewskie. M”A: acronym for private names. K: probably Kalman …Katz, or denotes: from Kashve. MHRY”A [מהרי"א] is an acronym of our teacher rabbi Yitzkhak Ayzik. A”Sh [א"ש] : sometimes the surname was actually compiled of two words such as Ay(zen)Sh(tat)
