The patrons of the Rainbow Inn discuss several topics in
Chapter Six of Silas Marner by George
Elliot. The chapter opens with the discussion of red Durham cow that Bob recently
brought into town. The conversation then progresses into a discussion about Mr. Tookey’s
singing voice. The crowd teases him about his weak performance and jokingly suggests
that he should leave the choir. They also discuss the courtship of Mr. Lammeter and
Miss Osgood, which Mr. Macey has apparently told many times but willingly retells for
the enjoyment of his audience. They also discuss a ghost, Cliff’s Holiday, which some in
the town believe exists while others don’t.
