Tenth Clue
-E'or once this week the clue is made up
of three different places in the British Isles rather than one — and what they have in common should eventually prove a useful hint!
1) On the way to see Foinaven and Arkle you might spend a night here — by the sweep of the Broom.
2) Here Sophia might have caught up with Tom, had he not been in bed with the woman he later took to be his mother — and had her father not caught up with her.
3) 'Once indeed I was disobedient. I refused to attend my father in market . A few years ago I desired to atone for this fault. I went to in very bad weather, and stood for a considerable time bareheaded in the rain, on the spot where my father's stall used to stand. In contrition I stood, and I hope the penance was expiatory'.
