The long pipes

Grayscale illustration of men in an inn looking aghast at something outside the image and momentarily forgetting their dinks and pipes.

The company at the Rainbow Inn look aghast at Silas Marner, who has entered the room like a ghost. Silas Marner comes to announce that he has been robbed and would like their help to find the thief.
