Edgar Ormskirk, the son of a scholar and scientist of Dartford, accompanies his friend Albert to London at the height of Wat Tyler's insurrection. Together they effect several timely rescues of young maids and their wealthy fathers, including Albert's mother and sister, and are rewarded in princely fashion for their deeds of valor. Knighted by the boy-king, they serve for a time in Europe, but return at last to England to settle on their estates.
