RIGHTS OF TRAVELLERS.
A traveller in the Lake district who found himself stranded owing to a mishap at 5.45. one morning went to an hotel and rang the bell. No one opened the door, and though he rang again and again, he was unable to gain admission for over an hour, while he stood in the cold and rain.
The traveller brought an action against the hotel keeper because he wished to show that innkeepers have a duty to the travelling public which they are legally bound to carry out, and the judge, agreeing with him, awarded him £SO damages.
