Affable, gentle Tobias is well loved by the Gidleys, his fellow workers and of course his betrothed Primrose.
He is a conscientious and considerate foreman at Deanscombe, where he is absolutely essential to the safe and smooth running of the quarry. Getting an exemption from military service on the grounds of indispensability should therefore be a formality for Tobias, but relies on reciprocal loyalty from boss Hector.
