Rabbi Mayer Bar Ilan's visit to Chaim Berlin in 1914

    Per Wikipedia :

    Yeshiva Rabbi Chaim Berlin, established in Brooklyn, New York, in 1904, was renamed for Rabbi Chaim Berlin in 1914, at the suggestion of his brother, Rabbi Meir Berlin (Bar-Ilan).

    1922 was the 10th anniversary dinner, founding was in 1912 nt as wikipedia says or was it changed to Chaim Berlin in 1912

    He came in 1913 to NY
