What miracles did Chand Patil witness that made him believe the Fakir he met was a saint?

Chand Patil witnessed two specific miracles that convinced him he had met an 'Avaliya' (saint) and not an ordinary person. The first occurred when the Fakir, who was Sai Baba, learned that Patil's mare had been lost for two months. As Chapter 5 recounts, Baba simply told him to search near the streams, and the horse was found immediately. The second miracle happened after Patil returned with the mare. The Fakir needed an ember for his chillum, so he thrust a pair of tongs ('chimta') into the earth and pulled out a glowing piece of coal, a wondrous act that solidified Patil's belief in his divine nature.
