The body was dumped in his house after dark when the professor had already gone to bed. During the night, the professor was awakened by the figure of a naked and shivering man holding an empty sack. The professor decided to help the man escape further punishment and some years later encountered him on the street, a wealthy merchant with a wife and two children.<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd--></edit>
