When the Ruzhiner’s first wife died (she was the daughter of Moshele, the Rosh Yeshiva of Bertichev) he married Rachel Leah the widow of R. Hirsh of Rymanov.
There was incredible pushing at the Chuppa.
Everyone wanted to attend the Chuppa.
So the Ruzhiner screamed: whoever wants to witness my disgrace should step forward.
Hearing this, no one dared to approach, and they did not even have a minyan.
Only R. Avraham Shlomo remained. The Ruzhiner winked at him: Shlomole come here, and he honored him by appointing him [R. Avraham Shlomo] to escort him [the Ruzhiner] under the Chuppa.
I.F.

Great-grandson of R. Avraham Shlomo
