Sinossi
Excerpt from Progress!: A Comedy
Dan. J ust so - and the family was ruined. However, there was but one son - this Arthur - who at that tinie was in the Guards, a fine, handsome, young oflicer. Well, father and son took this misfortune so to heart that young Arthur left the army, and, with his father, settled down here in the old Abbey, on their own estate, near stickton-le-clay, and have given no attention to politics or public life ever since. This, they say, is a degenerate, peddling age, and they will have none of it they have cut the world - a slight of which the world is quite unconscious.
Fer. And what sort of a man has the Honourable Arthur crusted into?
