* '''Speech Notes (Rishmei Neumim)''': Speeches delivered by the Rebbe, essentially the outlines before delivery (in certain parts it states "not said").

In that package were several pages of "Reshimot" as well as "Hayom Yom Part Two." When the Rebbe was asked about this, the Rebbe answered that the editors would find what to do with it. In practice, the Reshimot remained in the hands of the Igrot editors. In 5750 (1990), they gave "Hayom Yom Part Two" to Rabbi Peretz Blau (who published it as an addition to the Hebrew translated edition of "Hayom Yom"), but after this book came to the Rebbe's attention, the Rebbe responded (in essence) "Part Two - who gave permission to publish it?" The Reshimot were published in the Tzaddik L'Melech collections and in Volume 1 of Torat Menachem Hitva'aduyot, as mentioned above. Later, when the Reshimot series was published, the editors also republished these "Reshimot" within the series, and they were omitted from the new edition of Torat Menachem Volume 1. | ||
