Christmas prose celebrates the birth of Jesus in Bethlehem. It contrasts humble infancy with the Kingly role and urges giving oneself to Christ through praise, peace, and forgiveness. The piece invites congregational carol singing and joyful Christmas worship.
In 1876 on Curlew Point three river diggers Phil Morris, Chris Topham, and Tom Tumbrell share gold finds and plans as Christmas nears. They trade tales of luck, stake out land in a seven mile belt, and dream of better life as Tom reveals a windfall from a billiards game while Chris and Phil face distant family ties and future fortunes. Their friendship, sudden wealth, and hopes for Annie Faulsham drive a tale of discovery and uplift on the Australian gold field.
