Somehow returning from a hunt, the author noticed a funeral procession. The coachman acknowledged the relatives of the deceased: it turned out that they were burying Martyn the carpenter. At the bar’s cart at this time broke the axis, in which the coachman saw the consequence of the appearance of the deceased. The author had to get to Yurodinyh settlement in order to find a new axis. Here he pushed into the first house and found there an old man – a dwarf, who for a long time refused to help, but only cursed the master for shooting at animals. Finally he agreed to drive me on my cart. The coachman recognized the old man – this is some kind of Kasyan, whom everyone regards as a doctor. Kasyan tried to treat Martyn the carpenter. The coachman recalled the old man with irony, not without irony. Arriving at the cross-cutting, the author bought a good axle from the clerks and went hunting. Kasyan was following him. At first the old man gathered grass in the forest, then
again began to talk about how, that a man must eat bread and handcuff, and not kill wild animals and birds. Kasyan’s speech sounded “deliberately”, and the author was surprised: commoners and ringleaders do not say so. As it turned out, Kasyan lives by catching nightingales for fun. The worker is bad because his hands are “weak and stupid”. Meanwhile, he is a literate peasant. He is in the care of an orphan Annushka – a girl of 13, whom he calls a relative. Saying goodbye to the author, Kasyan asks for his forgiveness for the fact that he started talking, so the master did not catch anything. The author did not argue with him, but afterwards he heard from the coachman, despite the ironic swishings, that this old man is an unusual and even “disproportionate” person. and the author was surprised: the commoners and the redskins do not speak like that, as it turned out, Kasyan lives by catching nightingales for amusement, the worker is bad because his hands are “weak and stupid.” Meanwhile, he is a literate peasant.
