A bearded Jewish peddler passes through a village selling his quills, sealing-wax, and lead pencils; this forms the basis for a moral tale about a good Jew that once saved a man’s life from being murdered (chap. 9, with illus.). There are undated contemporary editions with 141 p. published in New York by the American Tract Society. Rinderknecht 46-236.
