Summary

"An elderly Englishman tells the story of his life, beginning with his inimitable father, a workman out of work, who becomes a wealthy contractor in a few years, through the accident of acquiring from a peddler an old signboard, “C. Dance. Builder” easily changed to C. Vance. The magic board brings him a job, and a helper who is able to do the work, while Vance stands by and looks wise. Without knowledge of building or any capital, he succeeds as an employer of labor."--Bartleby.com
