How was the traveler when he got to the country inn? He was ______.

Once a traveler was riding in the rain. He was wet and cold when he reached a country inn. The inn was so crowded with people that he could not get near the fire. So he called up to the waiter, "Take s6me fish to my horse!" The waiter answered, "But a horse doesn’t eat fish." The traveler then said, "Never mind.do as I tell you." On hearing the strange order, the crowd of people ran out to see a horse eat fish. The traveler, now having the whole room to himself, sat down beside the fire and warmed himself. When the waiter came back with the crowd of people, he said, "Your horse would not eat fish. ’ The traveler answered, "Never mind. Put it on the table. And when I have quite dried my clothes, I will eat it myself."
