clothes with Nicky while another company member, Jasper Nye, pretends to be ill with the sweating-sickness. At a fair, Hugh is able to warn a friendly Quack doctor of the arrival of the law, and is later ceremoniously granted "Seisin of the Road" by a Tom O'Bedlam around the fair-folks' camp fire. Eventually Hugh has the good luck to meet Mr. Anthony Heritage, an old acquaintance of his father's, a gentleman with a son of a similar age to Hugh and a daughter a little younger and who is willing to foster him and sponsor him as an Oxford scholar, servitor to his own son as Hugh's father was to him. At first Hugh is reluctant to leave the Players, but Jonathan has a quiet talk with him to convince him of the uncertainty of a strolling player's mildly illegal life and the advantages of a good education. Jonathan's strong affection for his adopted brother is very evident when Hugh accuses him of wanting to "get rid of me", but Hugh sees sense and, as the story closes, is happily settling in with his new family.
