half past twelve
I do n't expect no miracles , y' understand , and the way I understand it from you , this feller Morris Perlmutter is got a business head like Andrew Carnegie already and a shape like John Drew . '' `` I never mentioned his name because I do n't know that feller at all , '' Noblestone protested . `` But Perlmutter is a fine business man , Mr. Zudrowsky , and he 's a swell dresser , too . '' `` A feller what goes to a bank looking for accommodations , '' Zudrowsky replied , `` naturally do n't put on his oldest clothes , y' understand , but anyhow , Noblestone , if you would be around here at half past twelve to-morrow , I will see that Harry gets here too , and we will go down to Wasserbauer 's and meet the feller . '' It was precisely one o'clock the following day when Morris Perlmutter seated himself at a table in the rear of Wasserbauer 's Café and Restaurant . `` Yes , sir , right away ! '' Louis , the waiter , cried , as he deposited a plate of dill pickles on the adjoining table , at which sat a stout middle-aged person with a napkin tucked in his neck . ''
