Professor Pesca, an Italian, formerly taught at the University of Padua. Walter Hartright once rescued him from drowning and to repay this debt of gratitude..... Pesca recommends him to a tutoring job to at Limmeridge House in Cumberland. In the end, we learn that Pesca is actually a high officer in a secret society of political assassins.
