All is quiet at this sleepy little inn. A brewers wagon sits after a delivery while the driver and innkeeper refresh themselves and talk of the war in Bavaria.
"I hears those two armies is dug in and ain't shiftin'", says the drayman.
"Aye", replies the Innkeep, "Diggin up po-tae-toes to eat - that new crop. You mark my words though, them Austrians will try anything to get one over on old Fritz. I've seen Dragoons on the far bank yesterday. What they're doing here I don't know. But I told Capt Julius of the Feldjäger. Don't want no trouble here!".
