Lady Eleanor: Lawbreaker is a love story pure and simple from a British-Canadian short story writer and novelist Robert Barr, born at Glasgow, Scotland but emigrated with his parents to Upper Canada at age four and was educated in Toronto at Toronto Normal School. Here, the heiress conceals the will so that her cousin, the disinherited son of the house, may come to his own.
The heiress going to Sheridans to pay over a sum promised by her cousin is discovered by him and there is a jealous outburst followed by a happy ending.
