The main character is Martin Cheslewith. The author describes, among other things, his ancestors and what they did in former times.

The creator states that members of the above family are direct descendants of Adam and Eve and are very closely related to agriculture.

Dickens writes that the Cheslewytes were involved in all kinds of conspiracies and bloody battles throughout their family’s existence.

According to him, the odiz of Martin’s distant ancestors came to the territory of Foggy Albion with William the Conqueror. He adds that this famous ruler may not have favored his assistant very much, for he did not give the latter any land.

The author has no doubt at all that one of the Cheslavites took an active part in the Gunpowder Plot. The writer admits that Guy Fawkes was also a descendant of this ancient family.
