There are signatures and stamps of the Admo"r Rabbi Elazar Horowitz of Melitz on the title page, the last leaf and amongst the book's leaves.

The author Rabbi Yitzchak Aharon Ittinga [1827-1891] was one of the geonim of his generation, and complex questions were sent to him from all over the world. He was a close associate of Rabbi Yitzchak Isaac of Zhidichov and of Rabbi Chaim of Sanz. Rabbi Ittinga served as the president of Kupat Eretz Yisrael in Galicia, and served as rabbi of Lemberg in his later years.
Rabbi Elazar Horowitz [1882-1942] was the son of Rabbi Naftali of Melitz, author of Kedushat Naftali. He was the rabbi of Barowa, and then rabbi and Admo"r of Melitz. He was killed during the Holocaust in 1942 along with his family. He grandson is the Admo"r of Melitz, who resides in Ashdod. (Also refer to Alfasi, Encyclopedia L'Chassidut A, 286.)
