Yudelson
How do you do. [Looks at Jack as he shakes her hand.] A pleasure!
Jack
Mr. Yudelson is an old friend of the family. He’s known me since I was so high. [Measures with hand.] He and my father are great friends.
Yudelson
Cantor Rabinowitz and me, we are like this. [Puts two fingers together.]
Jack
[There is a pause. Yudelson has revealed significant detail. Mary’s involuntary expression of surprise shows this. Jack, for an instant, is confused. Then, with pride in his voice]. Yeh, my Father is the finest Cantor on the East Side.
