A kind and humble shoemaker called Simon goes out one day to purchase sheep-skins in order to sew a winter coat for his wife and himself to share. Usually the little money which Simon earns would be spent to feed his wife and children
He wanted his five rubles and twenty kopeks owed to him by his customers. He only manages to receive twenty kopeks rather than the full amount. Simon rashly spends the twenty kopeks on vodka and starts to head back home.
While approaching the chapel at the bend of the road, Simon stops and notices something. He peers harder and notices that it is a naked man who appears poor of health. Simon takes off his cloth coat and wraps it around the stranger. He aids him as they both walk toward Simon’s home.
The man, whose name is Michael, becomes an assistant in Simon’s shop. His ability is extraordinary.
