Foundling Mick is an orphan growing up in Ireland. Overcoming a number of obstacles, Foundling Mick and Dick, another orphan whose life Foundling Mick had saved, start a small business that proves profitable for the pair.

With the business a success, Foundling Mick now only seeks to help the good people he's met and who've helped him along the way.
