I wonder if the Hopkin's student is training to be a surgeon.
That's Long Beach where the car flipped on the LIRR. Long Branch in in NJ. (Being a native of Long Branch, car drivers there are just as bad at keeping their cars on 4 wheels and off railroad tracks.)

It's a common enough quest for a new Level 1 character. You send him down into the inn's cellar to kill enough rats to get to Level 2, and give him a little copper for his troubles so he can buy a slightly less-sucky sword.
