A gentleman who has fashionably dressed was strolling along with a gold headed cane in his hand when he was hailed by a miserable-
looking lame man apparently in needy
circumstances. The gentleman's compassion
was aroused and he gave him a shilling. Another
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,
promptly dropped his crutches and botled like a
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 )
