Martin is Elizabeth's previous employer.  He fought in World War I and was a decorated veteran, but an injury prevented him from fighting again or finding other work.  This, coupled with his wife working as a nurse, is all a large blow to his pride, and shortly after Elizabeth starts working for him, he begins to take his anger out on her.  It starts with a slap and ends with Martin forcing Elizabeth to skip meals, spend hours locked in a closet, endure multiple beatings, and listen to him tell her everyday how worthless she is.  Martin appears to Elizabeth in the form of the green mist later on in the story, and Elizabeth is finally able to confront him and what he did to her and begin to move on from her past trauma.
