A relation of the family, sir. A poor relation. I keep the keys and I see that the guests want nothing.
Pray, child, answer me one question. What are you may your business in this house be?
That is, you act as the bar-maid of this inn.
Inn! O law-what brought that in your head? One of the best families in the country keep an inn - Ha! Ha! Ha! Old Hardcastle's house an inn!!!
Mr. Hardcastle's house! Is this Mr. Hardcastle's house?
O, confound my stupid head, I shall be laughed at over the whole town. To mistake this house og all others for an inn, and my father's old friend for an innkeeper!
