“LITTLE SHEPHERD”
When John Fox, Jr., penned his immortal romance of the Kentucky Mountains in Civil War days, “Tho Little Shepherd of Kingdom Come,” he gave to posterity one of the finest historical novels ever written. This favourite story has now been brought to the screen by First National Pictures, retaining all the wealth of colour and romance of the original story, and adding the beautiful pictorial effects, marvellous drama and splendid acting of Richard Barthelmess and a cast of stellar players. The picture comes to the Grand Theatre tonight. “The Little Shepherd of Kingdom Come” is the absorbing tale of a homeless mountain boy, and of the amazing and unexpected adventures which befel him. It is a fast-moving and thrilling picture that grips the audience from start to finish, and it provides Bartholmess, one of the screen’s finest actor>, with perhaps his best role.
