Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"St. Nicholas Vol XIII. No. 8 June 1886" by Various is a periodical publication written in the late 19th century. This issue contains a range of content, including poetry and serialized stories aimed at children and young readers, presenting themes of adventure, morality, and personal growth. Notable selections include Emily Huntington Miller's whimsical poem "Once-on-a-Time," which evokes a magical land filled with treasures and imaginative adventures, and the continuation of Frances Hodgson Burnett's beloved tale "Little Lord Fauntleroy," featuring the charming young protagonist Cedric Errol and his evolving relationship with his grandfather, the Earl of Dorincourt. The opening of this edition begins with Miller's enchanting poem that invites readers to envision a fantastical world where childhood dreams come true, punctuated by references to treasures and magical beings. It then transitions into an excerpt from "Little Lord Fauntleroy," where the Earl of Dorincourt reflects on his joy in discovering the charming personality and lovely nature of his grandson, Cedric. As the young lord learns to ride his pony and builds friendships with the people around him, the narrative showcases his innocent kindness and the budding bond with his grandfather, who is beginning to find comfort and companionship in Cedric's presence. This beginning sets a tone of wonder and familial connection that defines the charm of this publication.
