Reluctantly Abraham nodded

toward Seidenberg, who turned to
Sam.
you seem to have learned a
good deal about our customs in
a short time" he said. I must
compliment you on your effort,
even if they are late.
And I might remind you that
they are too late for what you
have in mind, for tonight Roses

Abraham nodded slowly, but
Sam broke in again.
You know Rose doesn't want to

you can't force her to marry a
man twice her age"
you may be a good lawyer"
Abraham conceded. with dignity,
but you have still much to learn
about the laws of your own
people. And our laws say that
daughters must obey their fathers.
Rose knows that and will obey"
IT know enough about Talmudic
law to remember that what you
say is correct" Sam admitted.
Abraham's look of satisfaction, re-

faded as Sam added, But you

about marriage; the one that
says that daughters must be

he said to Abraham, "Since you

Seidenberg to take out of the bust

money he loaned you.
1T also makes him an equal

grimly. "Of course it is; I can
