Something Else Entirely
During the Previous Rebbe’s pioneering years in America, Reb Shlomo Aharon Kazarnovsky once received a generous donation. However, it wasn’t clear whether it was intended for the yeshiva or for Merkos L’Inyonei Chinuch outreach activities. Reb Shlomo Aharon shared this issue with the Previous Rebbe. The Previous Rebbe advised that he discuss the matter with the Rebbe’s younger son-in-law, the future Rebbe.
Reb Shlomo Aharon thought to himself that the son-in-law, as the administrator of Merkos L’Inyonei Chinuch, couldn’t possibly be objective on the matter. The Previous Rebbe sensed his thoughts and remarked, “he has a full view, a straight view, a strong view; he is something else entirely.”
