Excerpt from A Story of Jewish Home Life It was Friday evening. The lights shone brightly through the windows of a handsome residence in the best part of New York City. It was the home of David Harmon, a capitalist, who for many years had attended to no business except that connected with his charitable and philanthropic enterprises. In the dining room, a massive, eight-armed bronze electrolier shed its rays upon a table which was covered with an expensive lace cloth, and was prepared for the evening meal. The cut glass, the highly polished silver and the rare porcelain sparkled in reflected light. At the upper end of the table, the Sabbath candles burned in heavily embossed silver candlesticks, an heirloom in the family for uncounted centuries. Mrs. Harmon and her children were waiting to welcome the husband and father upon his entrance, and this will be an opportune time to introduce them to the reader. Mrs. Harmon was considered a very handsome woman. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
