The Hanged Man's Remarkable Story of Double Life
A former Lausanne grocer recounts surviving a hanging after poisoning in Holland. He flees to Germany, rebuilds as a merchant, and marries twice, pursued by Captain Cromme who exposes the bigamy. After more peril and an eventual escape, he ends impoverished but alive, vowing to fund hospitals with wine for future hangings.
