Little Lord Fauntleroy [illustrated] -In a shabby New York side street in the mid-1880s, young American Cedric Errol lives with his mother (never named, known only as Mrs. Errol or Dearest) in genteel poverty after his father, Captain Errol (whose first name was also Cedric), dies. They receive a visit from Havisham, an English lawyer with a message from young Cedrics grandfather, the Earl of Dorincourt. With the deaths of his fathers elder brothers, Cedric is now Lord Fauntleroy and heir to the Earldom and a vast estate. The Earl wants Cedric to live with him and learn to be an English aristocrat. The Earl despises America and was deeply disappointed with Captain Errol, his favourite son, for marrying an American. So he offers Mrs. Errol a house and income, yet refuses to meet or have anything to do with her, even after she declines the offer of the money.
