cations In the dual role of the little
lord and his charming mother.
The story of Little Lord Faunt-
leroy" concers chiefly the character
Of Cedric, the grandson of the
irascible Earl Of Dorincourt. who dis
inherited Cedric's father for marry
ing a beautiful American girl. When
Cedric's father dies and Cedric's
only uncle passes also. the title and
the estate descend naturally to the
little American. A cloud in the
form Of pretender appears on the
scene and then II is that little
Cedric's democratic ideals and lowly
friends become powerful instruments
in the restoration of his birthright.
