The narrative centers on a woman's struggle with her faith as she works with the Salvation Army, confronting the uncomfortable truth that their support relies on corrupt wealthy benefactors. This revelation challenges her beliefs and leads her to seek a new moral code. George Bernard Shaw, known for critiquing societal issues such as class privilege and religion, uses this story to explore the complexities of faith and morality against a backdrop of social criticism.
