```PASSAGE II
In the centre of the town, the town clock chimed two o'clock. In an abandoned house on the outskirts of the town an owl hooted as if to signal to Sergeant Abora and Constable Abaidoo to wake up from slumber. They had patrolled the town for hours and were heavy with sleep. The night was very dark and so cold that in spite of his thick overcoat, the Sergeant's teeth were chattering. He was about to speak when he heard a faint sound down the road that led to the town. Abaidoo also picked the sound. Both listened attentively and realized that a late traveller was coming up the road. They took cover behind two opposing trees. As he reached where Abaidoo was hiding, the traveller stumbled over what looked like the root of a tree.
Then Constable Abaidoo quickly flashed his torchlight and bawled out, 'Stop or I shoot!' Abora's gun was also held in readiness. The traveller who carried a heavy load on his left shoulder panicked, dropping his cutlass in the process.
'Who are you? Where are you from? What's in your bag? Speak out or I shoot! We've got you at last!' Abora exclaimed.
Trembling with fear and stammering for words the traveller gave his name as Nsiah. He was returning from Fosa with a bag of plantain and cassava.
But his cutlass and bag, both dripping with blood, gave him away. After a search the police found a human head and triumphantly marched him to the police station.```
