How Much Land Does a Man Need?
(Auto-generated)

An interpreter was found, and Pahom told them he had come about some land.†

interpreter = someone who translates language
They talked a great deal among themselves, and then told the interpreter to translate.†
"They wish to tell you," said the interpreter, "that they like you, and that it is our custom to do all we can to please a guest and to repay him for his gifts.†
The interpreter translated.†
Then they were silent and looked at Pahom while the interpreter said: "They wish me to tell you that in return for your presents they will gladly give you as much land as you want.†
Pahom asked what they were disputing about, and the interpreter told him that some of them thought they ought to ask their Chief about the land and not act in his absence, while others thought there was no need to wait for his return.†
The interpreter said, "This is our Chief himself."†
