What was Madhavrao's (Shama's) role when devotees brought books to Sai Baba, and what was the typical outcome?

As described in Chapter 27, Madhavrao, also known as Shama, played a key role as an intermediary for devotees seeking blessings on their books. Knowing that approaching Baba required patience and the right timing, devotees would have Shama present the sacred texts to Baba on their behalf. However, the outcome was often unexpected. After taking the book and turning some pages, Baba would frequently ignore the eager, outstretched hands of the person who brought it. Instead, he would turn to Shama and say, 'Shama, keep this copy; let it stay with you for now.' This shows Shama was a frequent recipient of these blessed books, even when they were intended for others.
