IT was late that night before Tad reached the village of Pine Hill and / approached the little, homely, old-fashioned inn which went by the name / of "The Traveller's Rest," this being the sign of the first inn ever / built in the place, hundreds of years before.
The house was kept by a very respectable man, called Anthony Robson, / and Tad had often heard his father speak of Tony Rob (as he called him) / in high terms as a thoroughly good fellow.
