man standing near, there upon came up and

said, "How can you be so foolish ? Don't you

know that fellow is not a cripple at all ? He is

sheer cheat; just lend me that stick of yours till I

beat him for his roguery." The gentleman, not

thinking anything was wrong, acceded to request.

The beggar having heard what was said,

trained athelete. The other man rushed after him

in hot pursuit shouting that he would give him his

due desert when he caught him. Both

disappeared round a corner. (solve unseen passage )
