Meyer turned to see a man who was clearly part of some law enforcement in this town.
"What's going on there? It's Constable Crane."
Meyer sighed and offered a polite nod the constable. He'd hoped to avoid the law's involvement. This whole affair could have been over and this thieving stranger might be better off with the money he'd 'stolen'.
"Nothing, sir, simply a transaction of goods. This kind fellow was offering me his knife in exchange for a few coins."
He tut-tutted and shook his head ruefully. "You never know what criminals you'll meet around here, especially if one is new."
Meyer offered a handshake to the constable. "Meyer Whitlock, sir. My sister and I are new in town, Eve Whitlock is our grandmother."
