Description
A thief kills a watchman and hears about a time machine invention and figures this would be the perfect way to escape the law. The machine works, sending him fifteen years into the past, but he is accosted on the street by a man who says he looks familiar and the thief panics and slugs him but he falls back and hits his head against the wall, killing him. The thief finds himself suddenly back in the warehouse where he committed his crime and the police apprehend him. He learns the person he slugged was the professor and when he died, the machine was never built so he could not have gone back in time. But he wonders from his jail cell "How did I go back in time when I found the professor's machine and it worked?"
