Hi Indrani,
I feel even professionally your decision was correct not only emotionally, coz the poor guy had a motivation to perform on the job, to earn money for his family needs, on the other hand, Mr. already-got-an-offer would have again looked for an opportunity to ditch you and go for someone paying more than you. If I am not wrong and the tale is not too old, your chosen guy must still be there working and thanking you for generosity, whereas the truth is you only gained from the situation.
