Captain Richard Trevor is manager of the Pwllygwynt lead mine, and one of the largest employers in his community. But the lead mine has failed to produce any lead, and as his investors begin to move away, Captain Trevor knows that the only way to keep his pious yet foolish wife and his clever yet heartless daughter in comfort is to open a new lead mine, as devoid of prospects as the last.
