Probable Sons

A story built around the Biblical tale of the prodigal son.  Sir Edward Wentworth is about to get an unwanted and unexpected visitor.  His orphaned Niece Milly has come to live with him.  At first the cynical man is irritated and easily annoyed by the child but soon her innocent caring ways begin to thaw his icy heart.  Milly has a heart for all God's Probable (This is how she pronounces the word Prodigal) sons.  As the tale unfolds Sir Edward is convicted by Milly's  simple and absolute faith in scripture and her retelling of Biblical stories.  Through Milly's compassionate example Edward is drawn to return to His heavenly father just as the prodigal did to his earthly one.
