Many doubts were arising in Mani's mind. He was thinking that he was going to break Rajam's head in a short while and throw his body into the river. But if it should be recovered? But then how could they know that he had done it? But if Rajam should come and trouble him at night as a spirit? Since his grandfather's death, he was sleeping alone. What if Rajam should come and pull his hair at night? After all it would be better not to kill him. He then finally decided that he would content himself with breaking his limbs and leaving him to his fate.
