A kindly, gullible gentleman and his club of friends bumble across England into duels, courtrooms and a debtors' prison over a breach-of-promise lawsuit, and settle at last into comfortable, forgiving old age.

Business first, pleasure arterwards, as King Richard the Third said when he stabbed the t'other king in the Tower, afore he smothered the babbies.
