Sochaczew, Poland (Pages 601- 627): "For years after the death of the Kotzker, Rabbi Avraham still resided in the home of his father-in-law and gave himself over completely to Torah. He no longer had anyone to support him, and he saw poverty himself. Finally, due to the great hunger, he was forced to leave the sanctuary of Torah and accept a rabbinical position in Parczow. However, even as he sat on the rabbinic seat, the Kotzker spark overtook him, which prevented him from becoming involved with people. In order to counteract this, Rabbi Avraham attempted to become involved in communal matters, and to conduct learning sessions in the city, without showing favoritism to the trustees and parnassim."
