w at Bettws-y-Coed-that pretty place which has a name that sounds so funny to us Americans and suggests a girl named Betty the Co-ed at college--there was a hotel, named the "Inn of Three Kegs." The shop sign hung out in front. It was a bunch of grapes gilded and set below three small barrels. This inn was kept by two respectable ladies, who were sisters. Yet in that very hotel, several travelers, while they were asleep, had been robbed of their money. They could not blame anyone nor tell how the mischief was done. With the key in the keyhole, they had kept their doors locked during the night. They were sure that no one had entered the room. There were no signs of men's boots, or of anyone's footsteps in the garden, while nothing was visible on the lock or door, to show that either had been tampered with. Everything was in order as when they went to bed. Some people doubted their stories, but when they applied to Hugh the conjurer, he believed them and volunteered to solve the mystery. M TO PRISON DID THEY COME TO THEMSELVES NOW AT BETTY'S SEQUOID THAT PLACE WHICH HAS A NAME THAT SOUNDS SO FUNNY TO US AMERICANS AND SUGGESTS A GIRL NAMED BETTY THE COET AT COLLEGE THERE WAS A HOTEL NAMED THE INN OF THREE KEGS THE SHOP SIGN HUNG OUT IN FRONT IT WAS A BUNCH OF GRAPES GILDED AND SET BELOW THREE SMALL BARRELS THE INN WAS KEPT BY TWO RESPECTABLE LADIES WHO WERE SISTERS YET IN THAT VERY HOTEL SEVERAL TRAVELLERS WHILE THEY WERE ASLEEP HAD BEEN ROBBED OF THEIR MONEY THEY COULD NOT BLAME ANYONE NOR TELL HOW THE MISCHIEF WAS DONE WITH A KEY IN THE KEYHOLE THEY HAD KEPT THEIR DOORS LOCKED DURING THE NIGHT THEY WERE SURE NO ONE HAD ENTERED THE ROOM THERE WERE NO SIGN OF MEN'S BOOTS OR ANY ONE'S FOOTSTEPS IN THE GARDEN WHILE NOTHING WAS VISIBLE ON THE LOCK OR DOOR TO SHOW THAT EITHER HAD BEEN TAMPERED WITH EVERYTHING WAS IN ORDER AS WHEN THEY WENT TO BED SOME PEOPLE DOUBTED THEIR STORIES BUT WHEN THEY APPLIED TO YOU THE CONJUROR HE BELIEVED THEM AND VOLUNTEERED TO SOLVE THE MYSTERY
