When he sees a corpse floating in the water, however, he decides instead to change clothes with it, and leave his own identification cards on the dead man. Then, starting life over, David gets work as a laborer. He meets Babbie once again, and soon moves to the Northwest with her. Meanwhile, after the dead man has been identified as David, Janice marries Dr. Stone, whom she has loved for several years.
