520			_a"The Christmas Story from David Harum" by Edward Noyes Westcott is a novella adapted from the original novel "David Harum," written in the late 19th century. This heartwarming tale revolves around the character David Harum, known for his generosity and unique, kind-hearted ways, as he assists the destitute Widow Cullom during Christmas. The story showcases themes of compassion, redemption, and the quintessential American spirit, embodying the warmth of human kindness during the holiday season. At the start of the story, we meet David Harum, who is preparing for Christmas while discussing the unfortunate circumstances of Widow Cullom, a woman who has fallen on hard times. David reveals his intention to call in a mortgage he holds on her property, stirring unease in his assistant, John Lenox. However, unbeknownst to the widow, David has a plan: he intends to surprise her by forgiving her mortgage, motivated by a long-held debt of kindness to her late husband, Billy P. Cullom. This opening sets the stage for a touching narrative that underscores the spirit of giving and the potential for transformation in people's lives during the holiday season.
