He was born into a Hassidic family

of his subordinate officer in the community, Y. L. Peretz, he wrote from time
to time in Yiddish and published original stories in Peretz’s Yudishe biblyotek (Yiddish library), Literatur un lebn (Literature and life),
Yontef bleter (Holiday leaves), and

Klement Yunosha’s Der dorfsshnayder
(The village tailor), among other works.
