Can you lay out the exact sequence of events that brought Madhavrao Deshpande and H.S. Dixit together for the first time?

📖 Chapter 51

The meeting was a rapid and seemingly miraculous sequence of events. As Chapter 51 recounts, H.S. Dixit was in Ahmednagar, anxious to go to Shirdi. Concurrently, Madhavrao Deshpande received a telegram in Shirdi about his mother-in-law's supposed illness in Nagar. After getting Baba's permission, Madhavrao took the three o'clock train and arrived in Nagar. Just as he got down from his carriage, Nanasahib Panshe and Appasahib Gadre spotted him. They directed him to Mirikar’s house to meet Dixit. Mirikar then sent for Madhavrao, Balasaheb Mirikar made the formal introductions, and within a short time, they decided to travel together on the ten o'clock night train to Shirdi.
