A Luckless Santa Claus

"A Luckless Santa Claus" is a Christmas short story in which Harry Talbot, a well-off young man with more charm than common sense, is challenged by his fiancée Dorothy to give away twenty-five dollars to strangers before ten o'clock.

Yet Harry's bungled generosity leads to a surprisingly warm and unconventional ending.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/ririro-com-short-stories--6577582/support.
