Bealby; A Holiday

Bealby was a small boy, the stepson of the gardener at Shonts, who is elevated to the position of steward's assistant. But Bealby declines to be a "blooming servant" and runs away, toppling over in the process the Lord chancellor of England, who appears to be a week-end guest at the house. His adventures begin with a caravan in which three women are touring the country, they are continued in company with a trams, and after a week of them a much chastened Bealby returns, willing to have another try at assistant stewardship. In the meantime there have been complications following the downfall of the Lord chancellor. –Book Review Digest, Vol. 11 [1916]
