EP 156: Georgia- The Devil Outwitted (Waldrop 1894)

In this story, a peasant family has a son. His mom doesn't want him to waste his life, so they take him out to get educated. Through a bit of chance, the Devil is the one to educate him, but only if the father can recognize his own son. After he does, the Devil is on the look out to get the kid back under his control. Who will win? The answer might be in the title.
