Greetings - Monthly Gedolim Stories

The following story that I am sharing with you for the "Monthly Gedolim Stories" segment in Av is one which I first read in Chaviva Krohn Pfeiffer's book, "Maggid Stories for Children" before re-reading it years later in the book, "Reflections of the Maggid", by her father, Rabbi Paysach Krohn, שליט"א. It is a story about kindness, care, and is one filled with a beautiful lesson about Bein Adam Lechavero (Between Man and His Friend). The impact from this story has stayed with me ever since I first read it all those years back and actually it was during the writing of last months' story that I found this one and put it aside for the next month. I am sharing to go live just after Tisha B'av in time for Shabbos Nachamu. I hope that you are reading this in good spirits and that you all had a relaxed and meaningful fast.
