A Strangers Gift PDF Download

Excerpt from The Stranger's Gift: A Christmas and New Year's Present It is to recollections like these that the Stranger's Gift owes its origin. It is offered to those who have cheered the stranger's path through the for eign land, and who, in return, will kindly receive this token that they are remembered by him. He approaches them once more as a stranger, since at the time of Christmas, he can only feel at home among the scenes of the past; yet he indulges the hope that this Gift will serve to strengthen the ties by which he is united to them, that it will bring him near to many a kindred mind, to whom he is now a stranger in the literal sense of the word, and finally, that the spirit in which this Gift is presented will testify to the truth that we all are but strangers and pilgrims on the earth.
