It was Christmas Eve, 1881. I was 15 years old and feeling like the world was over for me. I didn’t have enough money to buy myself the gift that I had wanted that year.
Dad came back in and there was ice in his beard. “You’ve been by widow (寡妇) Smith’s house recently?" he asked. Ms. Smith lived two miles down the road. Her husband had died and left her with three children.
“I rode by just today” Dad continued.“Little Jack was out looking for wood. They must be out of wood, Tom.”
We filled our sled (雪橇) high with wood. Then we went to the store and Dad bought
some food, and a smaller pair of shoes. I tried to think through what Dad was doing. I knew
