Imprisoned Man's Family Faces Dickensian Christmas in Belfast

BELFAST AP Christmas 174 for Patricia Wright and her Ave children is bleak. The family lives on Leeson Street near Falls Road, while Billy Wright, held for three years among 2,000 internees at Long Kesh, denies IRA ties and has not been charged.

Friends plan a Dublin trip for three children and a community party aims to ease the hardship in the ghetto.
