A Christmas Victorian Story

Averyl's Attic, which offers a variety of Victorian clipart, posted a very short 1901 Ladies Home Journal story (http://www.averyl.com/attic/victorian-christmas.htm) about a little girl's Christmas wish for a real doll.

She was living in the Colorado mines with her father, where recources were scarce. Yet, the men at the mining camp made an interesting sacrifice to create an unforgettable bit of Christmas magic.

Check it out. Definitely worth the five minutes of reading.
