"I did not," Morris replied promptly; "and if he did, Kleiman, I couldn't blame him. A feller doesn't want to work all his life for ten dollars a week." "What d'ye mean, ten dollars a week? We paid Harkavy fifteen and we offered him twenty-five; but the feller wouldn't stay with us at all. For two weeks now he acts uneasy and yesterday he leaves us."
What Linnaeus, Agassiz, and Cuvier did in the field of natural philosophy, they accomplished in their chosen province of Jewish history. Levinsohn was the first to express the opinion that the Russian Jews hailed, not from Germany, as is commonly supposed, but from the banks of the Volga. This hypothesis, corroborated by tradition, Harkavy established as a fact.
"I am agreeable we should say nothing more about it, Mawruss," Abe retorted, "because we already wasted more time and trouble than the whole thing is worth; but one thing I would like to know, Mawruss, before I shut up my mouth: Why did this here feller, Yosel Levin, call himself Harkavy?" "Say!"
Morris said impatiently. "You ain't a greenhorn no longer. Do you mean a thousand dollars?" "Six hundred dollars about," Harkavy replied. Morris whistled. "Well," he said after a pause of some seconds, "put off going until to-morrow anyhow. Maybe we could fix up to give you the six hundred dollars anyhow." Harkavy remained silent and Morris clapped him on the shoulder.
"Do you mean to told me that the old man's son ain't dead at all?" Morris demanded. "Seemingly," Pincus said; "aber this is the first time I heard it and I guess it's the first time the old man heard it too." Harkavy moaned and tried to sit up. "Easy there!" the doctor commanded. "Two of you take him inside and put him on a lounge if you have one."
Morris drew his former assistant cutter to the sidewalk. He had temporarily forgotten the object of his visit to the lower East Side in the sudden conception of an idea, which was no less than the rehiring of Harkavy. "What for a good job?" Morris asked. "Twenty dollars a week?" Harkavy nodded. "A little more," he said "twenty-five."
"You shouldn't let that fellow do any talking." "That's all right, doctor," Abe said calmly. "He should go on talking now if it would kill him even. Go ahead, Harkavy." "And so," Harkavy continued, "after I am stealing the wine they took me to the police office. There was a place! But, anyhow, Mr. Potash, I could tell you all about it afterward.
Besides such well-known names as Chwolson, the eminent professor, Harkavy, the indefatigable explorer of Jewish history in the Slav countries, and Gurland, the learned chronicler of the persecutions of the Jews in Poland, it is proper to make mention of David Kahana, one of the most eminent of the scientific contributors to Ha-Shahar, a scholar of distinction, who has succeeded in throwing light upon the obscure epoch of the false Messiahs and on the origin of Hasidism.
"I so direct," the commissioner replied, whereat Feldman again cleared his throat and coughed twice, and, in answer to this cue, Yosel Levin, alias Joseph Harkavy, entered the room. "The person so bribed, Mr. Commissioner, is named in the petition as the corpus delicti of the crime alleged to have been committed," Feldman said. "What!"
Morris called, but the assistant cutter only hastened his steps and it seemed to Morris that a sound like a sob was borne backward. "What is the trouble, Harkavy?" Morris cried; but in response Harkavy broke into a run, and with a mystified shake of his head Morris commenced his tedious journey uptown.
