Chayale – R’ Mayer Premishlaner’s daughter lived in Shatz.
Once, R’ Yidel Melamed of Safed (R’ Aizik Bronstein’s father) became ill and Chayale healed him. When he felt better, he asked her if the following story, told over in her father’s name, was true or not.
R’ Meir once came to Sadigora to the Rizhiner. The Gabbaim acted oblivious to him and left him waiting in line. The Rizhiner sensed this and quickly allowed him to enter his room, where they spent several hours together.
When he came out, R’ Mayer called out:
“Mayer does not need the Rizhiner; he is just as great as the Rizhiner! However, I came to see a Torah Scroll, who, from whence he left his mother’s womb, has no blemish in him.”
Chayale said that she had heard that R. Meir had retold the story three times.
