"What do you mean bum round our shop?" Philip demanded. He was asking about his brother-in-law, who'd just written, asking for money. "In the first place, Polatkin, I ain't said I am going to send him money, y'understand; and, in the second place, if I want to send the feller money to come over here, understand me, that's my business. Furthermore, when you are coming to call my brother-in-law a loafer and a bum, Polatkin, you don't know what you are talking about. His *Grossvater* , *olav hasholem* , was the great Harkavy Rav, Jochannon Borrochson."
