Description Chief Butler to the Earl of Loam, strongly objects to the latter's Socialistic tendencies, such as inviting all his servants once a month to afternoon tea in the drawing room, and waited upon by his three titled daughters. It upset the butler's status as the Aristocrat of the Servants' Hail. A subsequent yachting cruise reveals the Earl, family, and few friends, together with the 'Admirable Crichton,' wrecked upon an uninhabited island. Positions are reversed.
