Book Description
Excerpt from Olive Logan's Christmas Story: Somebody's Stocking The Stocking hung on the doorpost of a little room in the fourth story of a respectable tenement-house, not far from the great theatres of Broadway. It was fastened to the door-post by an iron fork which pierced the delicate meshes with its cruel prongs. It was a Stocking of thread, too thin and fine to be worn at the chilling Christmas season; and it was easy to sec that it belonged to a shapely ankle and a tiny foot. The tenants of the building, as they passed by and saw it hanging there, looked at it curiously, but nobody touched it or thought of putting any thing in it; till at last Jack came along. Jack stopped when he came along. "Well, I vow," said Jack, with an air of never having seen such an extraordinary affair before,"here's Somebody's Stocking." Whose? Ah, that was the very question Jack asked himself: "Whose?" Now what was it which made Jack's memory go wandering back through the shadows of the dead and gone Past, at sight of Somebody's Stocking hanging by Somebody's door? It did go wandering back, that is certain, and the result of its wandering was that Jack heaved a sigh, and again asked himself, "Whose?" A woman's, of course. That was clear enough. And a pretty woman's, of course; for it was not possible this fine white shapely stocking belonged to a woman with an ugly face and an ill-formed ankle and a clumsy foot. "It is just the Stocking," thought Jack, still standing in the growing shadows, and looking at it," that She might have worn."
