  • 5695-1934, the Rebbe traveled from Warsaw to the town of Ger on behalf of his father-in-law, the Previous Rebbe, to offer condolences to the Gerrer Rebbe, the Imrei Emes, who was mourning the passing of his son. The Rebbe later recalled that as an introvert, he would not usually participate in public rabbinic affairs and was reluctant to go, but he had no choice, as the Previous Rebbe had instructed him to.
