The old gentleman would have been obliged to account to Wolff for the large sum which he owed to the Jew Pfefferkorn, the most impatient of his creditors, though he need not have told him that he had used it in Venice to gratify his love of gaming.
One Sunday afternoon—it chanced to be her eighteenth birthday—a junior agent of Jason Philip, a fellow by the name of Pfefferkorn, came to the house, and in the course of the conversation remarked rather casually that the elder of the Jordan sisters was engaged to the musician Nothafft, that the engagement had been kept secret for a while, but that the wedding was to take place in the immediate future.
She had not supposed that Wolff's proud family was so wealthy; but the close of this report brought fresh disappointment, for including the sum which Herr Casper had borrowed from the Jew Pfefferkorn, the debts of the firm exceeded its possessions far more than Els had expected from the amount of its riches.

It is written against me. The theologians in Cologne have printed it, and they say that Johann Pfefferkorn wrote it. And I said, 'What will you do about it? Will you not vindicate yourself? And he answered, 'Certainly not. I have been vindicated long ago, and can spend no time on these follies. My eyes are too weak for me to waste their strength on matters which are not useful."
Yet, in my opinion, the entire firm does not deserve punishment only the father, who concealed from his upright son his own accounts and those of Samuel Pfefferkorn, and it is hard for me to say this in Herr Casper's presence; also, when the peril became urgent, illegally deprived his business partner of the possibility of obtaining a correct view of the real situation of affairs.

The enormous sum to which the debt to Samuel Pfefferkorn increased gives the position of affairs a different aspect. Since, as protector of the Jew, I must insist upon the payment of this capital with the usual interest, the old Eysvogel firm will be unable to meet its obligations nay, its creditors can be but partially paid.
