It was the first night of Hanukkah. Hershel of

Ostropol was walking down the road. He was

tired and hungry. Nonetheless, his step was

light. Soon he would reach the next village,

where bright candles, merry songs, and platters

piled high with tasty potato latkes awaited him.

But when he arrived, the village was silent and

dark. Not a single Hanukkah candle could be

seen.
