# On Sunday, 8 Tevet 5738 (December 18, 1977), after Mincha prayers in the "Lower Gan Eden," Rabbi Yeshayahu Hertzel - the rabbi of Kfar Tavor, stood together with his son. The Rebbe gave him the Ahavas Yisrael kuntres (with his holy signature) - saying: "Since you are a mashpia and this is a special edition for mashpi'im that includes my signature and blessings..."
# On Tuesday, 2 Iyar 5738 (May 9, 1978), when the Rebbe arrived at 770, Rabbi David Shkolnik from Nachalat Har Chabad was standing near the "Lower Gan Eden." The Rebbe asked him if he was traveling today, and when he answered affirmatively, the Rebbe told him to come inside (to the "Lower Gan Eden"). There the Rebbe gave him the Ahavas Yisrael kuntres, the mashpi'im edition with his holy signature.
