The Chimes

The Chimes is somewhat similar to Scrooge's story, in the sense that an old man has his mind changed by supernatural means. In this case, however, the protagonist of our story is Trotty Veck, an aged ticket-porter (messenger) who longs for the old days. Thanks to the newspapers, he has taken to believe that the working class - to which he belongs - is responsible for their own strife. When he supposedly dies climbing a belltower, spirits and goblins appear and present him with visions of a future riddled with social injustice and the suffering of those he loves.
