The other students (including the teacher's daughter) resent him and try
to drive him away. The teacher's daughter challenges him to a fight and
when he refuses she becomes enraged and recklessly chops off his arm!
He retreats, broken and bloody, and is found by a young poor girl living
alone who nurses him back to health. Meanwhile, the evil gang who originally
