Stagewagons are economical ways to travel, so you engage the next one heading southward. While inexpensive, this is not a very comfortable way to travel. You are crammed into your seat, hot and sweaty, with other passengers. The soldier sitting next to you smells like he slept in a pig sty last night.

The vehicle bounces over the road ruts. With every bump, you feel it jar you to the very bone. To make it worse, your slave manservant, riding in the seat behind you, grumbles and complains out loud about how undignified it is for a burgess and his servant to ride to Williamsburg this way. You realize that, as a new burgess, you should travel in a more dignified manner. Which shall it be?
