The Warden by Anthony Trollope is the first novel in the Chronicles of Barsetshire series. It follows the story of Septimus Harding, a clergyman and warden of an almshouse. When reformers question the legitimacy of his income, Harding faces a moral dilemma: defend his position or step down to protect his integrity. His daughter, Eleanor, and her love for reformer John Bold, add to the conflict between personal loyalty and public duty.

The novel explores the tension between tradition and progress, addressing the moral complexities of social reform.

Excerpt:
"I would rather resign my wardenship," said Mr. Harding; "I would rather give up all that I have in the world, than think that I had taken a dishonest penny."
