At midnight R. Joshua Tomoshover would awaken himself. How? He yelled out from his sleep “Joshua get up!”
The ritual slaughterer of Dej – R. Aaron Zelig Green – wanted to see if this was true so he stayed up at night and saw that this was indeed true.

Recently there have been changes in research and more complex methods and approaches have been introduced that find characteristics unique to late Hasidim.
