First Sentence: Wali Jam was a merchant at Candahar, and in the year 1864 lived in a large, rambling old house in the suburbs of that city.
Last Sentence: Wali Jam had hoodwinked the people of Candahar, outwitted the hill-men, and passed in safety through their country; but he, in turn, had in this one instance, been gulled, deceived, and bamboozled by a trickster, who, although far his inferior in mental caliber, had swindled him easily by means of consummate impudence and fictitious mystery.
