Messrs. Sewell, Bryan Edwards, Henniker, and C. Ellis, took the opposite side of the question.

When Caldigate informed the driver that they wanted to be taken as far as Henniker's hotel, the man said that he had given up going so far as that for the last two months, the journey being too perilous.

'They told us that Nobble was a fine town.' Henniker's hotel was a long, low wooden shanty, divided into various very small partitions by thin planks, in most of which two or more dirty-looking beds had been packed very closely.

At the bar they were received by a dirty old woman who said that she was Mrs. Henniker.

Upon that they agreed to Mrs. Henniker's terms, and sitting down on one of the benches looked desolately into each others faces.

It was about noon when our friends reached Henniker's, and they were told that there would be dinner at one.

Another man holloaed to 'Mother Henniker' for pickles; but Mother Henniker, without leaving her seat at the bar, told them to 'pickle themselves.'

When the meal was half finished, Mrs. Henniker brought in an enormous jorum of tea, which she served out to all the guests in tin pannikins, giving to every man a fixed and ample allowance of brown sugar, without at all consulting his taste.

When thus absent, he would live as Jack Brien and his friends were living at Mrs. Henniker's, and was supposed to enjoy the ease of his inn more thoroughly than he did the constraint of his grand establishment.

You'll hear of him, may be, up at Henniker's.

With that he led them out of the gate, and nodding his head at them by way of farewell, left them to go back to Mrs. Henniker's.

To Mrs. Henniker's they went, and there, stretched out at length on the wooden veranda before the house, they found the hero of the potatoes,the man who had taken them down to Crinkett's house.

'Mother Henniker can tell you that, or any other publican round the country.

Mick proposed that they should be left for the entire month in the charge of Mrs. Henniker, and, when this was pronounced impossible, he was for a while disposed to be off the bargain.

It was at last settled that one portmanteau should be sent by the coach, and one left in the charge of Mrs. Henniker.

Before they went they found Mrs. Henniker up, with hot tea, boiled beef, and damper.
