Christmas On Big Rattle

"Christmas On Big Rattle" finds solitary trapper John Archer spending Christmas Eve at his remote wilderness camp, having spent two days dismantling his own traps out of seasonal compassion. His quiet night is shattered when Sacobie Bear, a Micmac man near death from cold and hunger, collapses through his door after a desperate trek from Fox Harbor. Archer revives him with brandy, feeds him bacon and tea, and quietly assembles a pack of provisions for the man's sick family — never suspecting the wordless gift waiting at dawn.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/ririro-com-short-stories--6577582/support.
