Can you describe the role of Chand Patil in Sai Baba's arrival in Shirdi as explained in this chapter?

As detailed in Chapter 39, Chand Patil was the instrumental figure through whom Sai Baba's presence was first revealed to others. The chapter recounts that Sai first appeared in the Nizam State and arrived in Shirdi unexpectedly with the wedding party of Dhupkheda. Chand Patil, a meritorious man from that village, was the one who initially 'found this treasure (Sai)'. The text mentions the famous story of how Chand Patil's horse was lost, how he met Sai, and how Sai helped him find it. However, the chapter clarifies that Chand Patil was merely an instrument, as Sai came to Shirdi of his own accord for the upliftment of his devotees.
