Answer:
Would welcome the second traveller's advice.
Explanation:
The passage the question refers to comes from "Young Goodman Brown." Lines 15 and 16 say the following about the traveller:
"...he had an indescribable air of one who knew the world, and would not have felt abashed at the governor's dinner-table, or in King William's court, were it possible that his affairs should call him thither."
The fact that the man was described as someone who looked knowledgeable is a positive quality of the man. Moreover, the man is described as someone who is humble, but who would not be embarrased to be surrounded by a distinguished company. These positive qualities suggest that the government leaders would welcome the second traveller's advice.
