11dn "Mole's version of "It is a truth universally acknowledged ..." (2,3,4,3)
I won't give the answer, but shouldn't it be "Molesworth" rather than "Mole"?

I agree. I was thinking of Wind in the Willows or George Smiley

I suppose you could argue that the apostrophe covers the setter for the excision of "worth", but it is not satisfactory.
