CHAPTER XX.
FAREWELL TO THE ROMANS--THE LANDLORD AND HIS NIECE--SET OUT AS A TRAVELLER.
On reaching the plain above, I found my Romany friends breakfasting, and on being asked by Mr.Petulengro to join them, I accepted the invitation.
No sooner was breakfast over than I informed Ursula and her husband that they would find the property which I had promised them below in the dingle, commending the little pony Ambrol to their best care.

I took leave of the whole company, which was itself about to break up camp and to depart in the direction of London, and made the best of my way to the public-house.

I had a small bundle in my hand, and was dressed in the same manner as when I departed from London, having left my waggoner's slop with the other effects in the dingle.

On arriving at the public- house, I informed the landlord that I was come for my horse, inquiring at the same time whether he could not accommodate me with a bridle and saddle.

He told me that the bridle and saddle with which I had ridden the horse on the preceding day were at my service for a trifle; that he had received them some time since in payment for a debt, and that he had himself no use for them.
