Santa Claus in the West A tale of charity and a miner family
In a harsh Western mining camp a widow and her two children fear Christmas poverty until Jack Dawson, a miner, overhears their plea. He rallies the camp gamblers and workers to fund a life changing gift, amassing eight thousand dollars in a blue stocking. The gifts transform the family, leading to marriage between the widow and Dawson four months later, with Totty and Benny cherished as Santa Claus's blessings.
