Once in a while when Berl came home from the synagogue, he brought news to his wife. Berlcha listened and shook her head. Her face was yellowish and wrinkled like a cabbage leaf. She was half deaf. Berl had to repeat each word he said to her.
Here in Lentshin nothing happened except the usual events: a cow gave birth to a calf, a young couple got married. Actually,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Lentshin had become a village with few young people. The young men left for Warsaw and sometimes for the United States. Like Samuel, they sent letters and photographs in which the men wore top hats and the women fancy dresses.
Berl and Berlcha also received such photographs. But their eyes were failing and neither he nor she had glasses. They could barely make out the pictures. Samuel had sons and daughters and grandchildren. Their names were so strange that Berl and Berlcha could never remember them. But what difference do names make?

He was so tall that he had to bend down to get through the door. He was followed by the coachman who carried two leather suitcases. In astonishment Berlcha raised her eyes.

When the coachman closed the door, the nobleman said, 'Mother, it��s me, your son Samuel-Sam.' Berlcha heard the words and her legs grew numb. Her hands lost their power. The nobleman hugged her,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], kissed her forehead and both her cheeks. Berlcha began to cackle like a hen, 'My son!' At that moment Berl came in from the woodshed,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], his arms piled with logs. The goat followed him. When he saw a nobleman kissing his wife,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Berl dropped the wood and exclaimed, 'What is this?'
