One night, a young man enters an Irish tavern and informs local residents from the threshold that he killed his despot dad - he broke his skull with a spade. Instead of being horrified and sending the young man to the police, he is declared a daredevil and a hero. Here the local princess Pegin Mike is in charge - the daughter of the owner of the establishment: as befits a real princess, she is reasonable and domineering. And, as soon as the murderer Christy Mehawn appears in the village, she declares him her employee. John Millington Singh claimed that he wrote primarily a play about the life of peasants, but in a cheerful Irish manner.
