Such a Christmas as I spent that year I cannot recollect before or since.
The End.
[Transcriber's Notes]
Punctuation surrounding reported speech has been regularised, all other punctuation and spelling has been left as in the original text.
Some of the illustrations have been moved from their original placings to paragraph breaks. Every effort has been made to place them as close to the scenes depicted as possible.
Page numbers at the right side link to black and white images of the book's pages. The original book has blank pages following the full-page illustrations. To reduce the size of the image file, neither the blank pages nor the black and white copies of the full-page colour illustrations have been included.
