An inscription from Rav Tzair ( Chaim Tchernowitz) to Rabbi Henry Pereira Mendes

I came across a copy of a book inscribed by Rav Tzair ( Chaim Tchernowitz) to Rabbi Henry Pereira Mendes. Interestingly, the inscription is in block Hebrew letters, apparently as Mendes would not have been able to read the Ashkenazi Hebrew script that Rav Tzair generally used. Mendes died shortly after this inscription aged 85.
