London
was very cold and foggy. Ebenezer Scrooge was working hard in his office. His
secretary, Bob Cratchit, was writing letters quietly in the next room. It was a
small room, with a small fire. Bob was very cold. Scrooge did not give Bob much
wood for his fire because he did not like to spend money. Scrooge did not like
anything. He did not like the people in the streets or the people he worked
with. He especially hated Christmas. Scrooge was an old man. He was very thin,
with thin, white hair on his head and face. He had worked in the same dark
office for very many years. Once it had been the office of SCROOGE AND MARLEY,
and those names were still on the door. But Jacob Marley had died seven years
before and Scrooge worked on without him.
