Skenduolis

A minor official, Jonas Shatas, saved an apothecary who had fallen into the river. The whole city found out about it. Jonas felt like a hero. It seemed already close to the realization of a dream - marriage to the daughter of the boss. However, Jonas plan was not destined to come true. Having taken the chief, who was floundering merrily in the water, for a drowning man, Jonas decided to stun him before starting to rescue him.
