Who was the crofter and how did he welcome the peddler?

Or

The Crofter can be called as a good host.” Why?
Or
How was the peddler treated at the crofter’s cottage?

The peddler knocked the door of a crofter and requested for night shelter. The crofter happily took him inside as he wanted someone to talk to. He offered him hot supper. Then he gave him a big slice of tobacco for his pipe to smoke. Finally, he entertained the stranger by playing the game of cards ‘Majolis’ with him until bed time.

The rattrap man viewed that the whole world was a big rattrap to trap the people in. It offered riches, joys, shelter, food, heat and clothing like the rattrap offered cheese and pork to tempt the rats. The world had been very unkind to him. So he got good please in thinking ill about them. Some had let themselves caught in the big rattrap and the others were circling around the bait.

One day the peddler was moving round selling his rattraps. He suddenly thought that the whole world about him was nothing but a rattrap. Its land, cities, and villages existed only to set baits for the people. It offered riches, joys, shelter, food, heat and clothing etc. as the rattrap offered cheese and pork for the rats.

The peddler was not welcomed wherever he went. He was looked with great despire and was always chased away by the people. Only sour looks greeted him everywhere. But the crofter welcomed him warmly and showed him unusual generosity. The peddler had not expected such kind of warm welcome from him.
