What did the peddler say in his defence when it was clear that he was not the person the Ironmaster had thought he was?

Solution

When the ironmaster understood that he mistook the stranger fellow as an old acquaintance, he asked the stranger in a loud voice, “What does this mean?”

The stranger did not try to make any excuse. He said it was not his fault. He never pretended to be anything but a poor trader. He pleaded and begged to be allowed to stay in the forge for the night. He concluded that no harm had been done. He could, at the worst, put on his rags again and go away.
