What was Damu Anna's specific involvement in the Ram Navami festival in Shirdi?

Damu Anna played a significant and traditional role in the annual Ram Navami festival. According to Chapter 25, two large new flags are taken out in a procession through Shirdi village during the festival. One of these flags was provided by Damu Anna, a vow he had maintained for many years out of 'uninterrupted love and devotion.' The other flag was from the Nimonkars. The text specifies that the procession, accompanied by musical instruments, would start from the house of Kondaji Sutara (the carpenter), and the flags, described as long banners, would ultimately be tied to the two ends of the Masjid.
