About rabbi Aharon Menachem Mendel HaCohen see previous item. It is interesting to note that Rabbi Aharon Mendel HaCohen requested rabbinical ordination in the city of Safed, while he was serving as rabbi in Cairo. It is possible that this is related to the struggles which he conducted for the formation of a united Slaughtering Committee for the Ashkenazi and Sephardi congregations in Cairo [see attached material].
