Editing Rabbi Dovid Goldstein (section)

== With the Frierdiker Rebbe ==
The first time he saw the Frierdiker Rebbe was at a farbrengen held in a hotel. While the chassidim were waiting for the Rebbe to come out to the farbrengen, the Rebbe was in an inner room and R' Dovid waited by the door. When the door opened momentarily, he peeked inside and beheld his holy face.

In the years when the Frierdiker Rebbe farbrenged on the second floor, entry was permitted only to elder chassidim. Many times he tried to push his way in, but without success. One year, before the Chag HaGeulah of 12-13 Tammuz, he waited on the stairs long before the farbrengen began, and after a few minutes when the Rebbe came up, he let him in and instructed him to hide in the coat closet. After more than half an hour of waiting in the closet, the Rebbe inquired about his welfare.

When the Frierdiker Rebbe came out to farbreng, the Vaad Hamesader looked for bochurim who had entered without permission, and during the searches, they also checked the coat closet. R' Dovid, who was caught, pretended to faint, and the Vaad members brought him to the Rebbetzin's room and called for first aid. When they went out to bring him a glass of water, he slipped inside to the farbrengen.
