count Of neglect Of duty. Among the
charges against him was that he came
TO the store late In the morning he
cause he attended service at the syna-
gogue in order to say Kaddish-the
prayer for the dead-for his father.
The clerk argued that 1t was his privi-
lege and his duty to say the prayer for
his departed father, while the mer
chant. who was also religious man.
maintained that "if Moses had known
that a man had to pay 5000 gulden a
year rent he would have made differ
ent laws" The judge would not allow
such an argument, but decided in IA
vor OF the merchant. because the
daily attendance at the synagogue
could not be considered the right of
the clerk without the consent Of the
employer"
