In April 1891, two matters greatly excite the inhabitants of Edinburgh: the decennial Population Census and the Annual General Meeting of the Edinburgh Society for the Propagation of a Universal Language. The General Secretary, Mr Justice, is a militant champion of the highly popular language Volapk; but he is locked in a battle for with Dr Bosman, a shameless apologist for Esperanto. Mr Justice travels the east coast of Scotland in part conducting classes in the grammar and vocabulary of Volapk. En route, he recruits a secret ally an ill-behaved old gentleman who has promised to bring the majority over to the Volapk camp.
