The case was taken into court, and the decree given was that he who was responsible for curing the cat must pay the losses of the others. The king was informed of the dispute, and reversed the decree, deciding that the three merchants should pay him who was responsible for the cure of the cat. He said that the broken leg could not walk, and that the three legs belonging to the three traders were those that had caused the fire ; therefore, they were bound to pay the man who was in charge of the cat. Reluctance through avarice to meet a small expense is many a time the cause of total ruin. - [Previous: 65.6.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.6.3) - [Next: 65.6.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.6.5) - [Up: 65.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.6) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.6.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.6.4) · Pramāṇa
