He was very much in debt, which is why he accepted bribes, also through Jewish intermediaries: Watman, Neuman and Cy- prys, who forced other Jews to give him “loans”. With their mediation they could also “buy themselves out of” conscription. Instead, factors received public tenders and passports for multiple crossing of the Prussian border.
