Hirsch Summary
Question whether a posthumous illegitimate child, who was recognized by his father before his birth, exempts the lawful wife of his father from the levirate marriage or chalitzah. Moses Alvarez decided that the woman, since the legal situation is not entirely clear, must perform chalitzah; however, if she has already married a Cohen, she may remain with him.
