  In the town of Vladimir lived a young merchant named Ivan Dmitritch Aksyonof. He had two shops and a house of his own.
  
  Aksyonof was a handsome, fair-haired, curly-headed fellow, full of fun, and very fond of singing. When quite a young man he had had too much, but after he married he gave up drinking, except now and then.
  
  One summer Aksyonof was going to the Nizhny Fair, and as he bade good-bye to his family his wife said to him, Ivan Dmitritch, do not start to-day; I have had a bad dream about you.
  
  Aksyonof laughed, and said, You are afraid that when I get to the fair I shall go on the spree.
  
  His wife replied: I do not know what I am afraid of; all I know is that I had a bad dream. I dreamt you returned from the town, and when you took off your cap I saw that your hair was quite grey.
  
  Aksyonof laughed. That's a lucky sign. said he. See if I don't sell out all my goods, and bring you some presents from the fair.
  
  So he said good-bye to his family, and drove away.
