Excerpt from She Stoops to Conquer, And, the Good-Natured Man
The story of She Steeps to Conquer is said to have been suggested to Goldsmith by a youthful blunder of his own, in believing the direction given by Mr.
Cornelius Kelly, the wag of the place, when he had asked for direction to the best house in Ardagh. The best house, which he took for an inn, belonged, it is said, to a Squire Featherstone, who, as he happened to know Goldsmith's father, humoured the joke.
