The Ghost informed Screoge, “it is required of every man thut the spirit
within him should walk abroad among his fellowmen; and if that spirit
goes not forth in life, it is condenined to do so after death. It is doomed to
wander through thé world—and witness what it cannot share.
“You will be haunted by Three Spirits. Without their visits, you cannot
hope to shun the path I tread. Expect the first when the bell tolls One.”
Scrooge awoke and the curtains of his bed were drawn by a small,
sh creature.
“Tam the Ghost of Christmas Past,” it said.
The Ghost and Scrooge went to a bare room where a tonely boy was
reading near a feeble fire: Scrooge wept to see his poor forgotten self as he
used to be, and glanced axiously towards the door. It opened: anda little

Scrooge knew he was dead. Scrooge and he were partners.

nephew's cheerful voice.

Another idol has displaced me: and if it can cheer and comfort you in time to come, as . would have, I have no just cause

“Bhat idol has displaced you?” he rejoined.
“A golden one.”
“Spirit!” said Scrooge, “show me no more! Conduct me
home. Why do you torture me?”
Scrooge had no occasion to be told that the bell was again
upon the stroke of One.
Now his bed became the very core and center of a blaze of
ruddy light, which streamed upon it when the clock proclaimed
the hour. Living green so filled it that it looked a perfect grove.

OLDING up his hands in
a last prayer to have his
fate reversed, Scrooge saw
the Phantom shrink, collapse
and dwindle. down into a
bedpost.
Yes: and the bedpost was his own.
The bed was his own, the room was his own. Best and happiest of all,
the time before him was his own, to make amends in!
Running to the window, he opened it and put out his head, calling to a
happy urchin in the street. *
“Do you know if the Poulterer’s have sold the prize turkey?”
“It’s hanging there now.”
Scrooge had the turkey delivered to Bob Cratchit’s. Scrooge then went to
church and in the afternoon he went to his nephew’s house.
“It's 1. Your Uncle Scrooge. I have come to dinner. Will you let me in,
Fred?”
Let him in! It is a mercy they didn’t shake his arm off. He was at home
in five minutes. Nothing could be heartier.
