EZRIELK THE SCRIBE 235
So Ezrielk became scribe in Kabtzonivke.
Of course, he did not make a fortune. Reb Shmuel Bar, who had been a scribe all his days, died a very poor man, and left a roomful of hungry, half -naked children behind him, but then what Jew, I ask you (or has Messiah come?), ever expected to find a Parnosseh with enough, really enough, to eat?
