The Rizhiner’s second wife was the widow of R. Hersh of Rimanov. 

After the wedding, the Rizhiner asked her, “What did the Rimanover say about me?” and she answered: “my first husband said that all the money and honor in the world is not enough for the Rizhiner, but he did not enjoy any of it.”

The Rizhiner replied: “Certainly – certainly! I did not expect him to know so much.”
