_Gents:_ Mrs. Kreitmann of your city requests us to ask you about
one of your customers by the name of Mr. Mendel Immerglick, of
Immerglick & Frank. We drew a report on him by both commercial
agencies and are fairly well satisfied, but would be obliged if
you should make inquiries amongst the trade for us and greatly
oblige
Yours truly,
THE FLOWER CITY CREDIT OUTFITTING CO.
Dic. PH/K
P. S. I hear it this fellow is a good bright young fellow. I will
be in N. Y. next month and expect to lay in my spring goods.
PHILIP HAHN.
"Well, Mawruss," Abe said, as he finished reading the letter, "I'm sorry
to get this letter. I don't know what I could tell it him about this
fellow Immerglick. Now, if it was a responsible concern like Henry
Feigenbaum, of the H. F. Cloak Company, it would be different."
"Henry Feigenbaum!" Morris exclaimed. "Why, he's only got one eye."
"I know it, Mawruss," Abe replied, "but he's got six stores, and they're
all making out good. But, anyhow, Mawruss, I ain't going to do nothing
in a hurry. I'll make good inquiries before I answer him."
"What's the use of making inquiries?" Morris protested. "Tell him it's
all right. I got enough of this Miss Kreitmann already, Abe. She's
killed enough trade for us."
"What!" Abe cried. "Tell him it's all right, when for all I know Mendel
Immerglick is headed straight for the bankruptcy courts, Mawruss.
