Abstract
The great tradition of the English political system emphasized the importance of preserving the concept of continuity in its institutions as upheld by the Constitution. As a result, Great Britain was a force of magnitude on the Continent and took her place proudly among the great powers. However, this English pride in custom became the point of conflict in a controversy involving a traditional occupation -- the cleaning of chimneys.
