"Why," said Hyman, "I just received a consignment of garments from a feller called Lowenstein in Galveston. He wrote me he was overstocked." "Overstocked?" Abe cried. "Overstocked? What color was them garments?" "Why, they was a kind of plum color," said Hyman. Abe put his hand to his throat and eased his collar. "And did you send him a check for 'em yet?" he croaked. "Not yet," said Hyman.
Potash. Then followed a tiresome journey to Pittsburgh with two changes of cars, and finally, on the morning of the fourth day, at seven-thirty sharp, he accompanied Hyman Margolius to the latter's place of business. There he took off his coat and helped Hyman and his staff of assistants to pile up and mark for auction a large consignment of clothing.
If they was only so prompt with checks as they was to claim deductions, Mawruss, you and me would have no worries. I think some of 'em finds a shortage in the shipment before they open the packing-case that the goods come in. Take your friend Hyman Maimin, of Sarahcuse nothing suits him.

The Army boy retold the entire story, leaving out nothing not even, the reader may be sure, what Vicente Tomba had said to Hal about Draney's connection with the natives.

"My kid brothers and cousins have never been out here and one view will please them as well as another." A few more soldiers came forward to ask about errands that the young sergeants had undertaken.

He tipped the boy a dime and was about to acquaint Hyman with the good news, when another messenger boy entered and delivered a second telegram to Abe. It read as follows: "Lowenstein wires he insists on delivery entire order complete, otherwise he will sue. What shall I wire him?
"That Tom Evans, the Welsh coal-miner, is Hyman Feinsilver what worked by us, and the way he treated that poor Eyetalian young feller was a shame for the people. It makes me sick to think of it." "Don't think of it, then," Abe replied, "because it won't do you no good, Mawruss.
Two hours later he returned, wearing a broad smile that threatened to engulf his stubby black mustache between his nose and his chin. "Hymie," he said, "I'm sorry I got to disturb that nice pile you made of them garments. I'll get right to work myself and assort the sizes." "Why, what's the trouble now, Abe?" Hyman asked. "I disposed of 'em, Hymie," Abe replied. "Two hundred to Hamburg and Weiss.

No man in the department had better reason to crave that consummation than Hyman Ginsburg had. With him the hope of achieving revenge became practically an obsession. It rode in his thoughts.
