Brody. 21 Teves 1771: The rav, Rabbi Yossel Schatzkes, passed away.
Rโ Yossel left his last will, next to him shall be buried, one who was as knowledgeable as him in Talmud Yerushalmi.
Eleven years later, Rabbi Moshe Margulies, author of Pnei Moshe on Talmud Yershualmi, made his way to Brody, to sell his sefarim, where he passed away. He was indeed laid to rest next to Rโ Yossel.
