The coming of Christmas gave the author Booker a very good insight into the way the poor celebrated the festival. On Christmas Eve, children came in big groups knocking at the doors of the affluent during early hours of the morning saying “Chris’mus gifts! Chris’mus gifts!”.  Some families had only a bunch of firecrackers to celebrate the festival while some others had either just ten cents worth ginger cakes bought the previous day or a few pieces of sugarcane. In some cases, the families rejoiced with a new cup of cheap whiskey or used bright-colored cards for decoration. At night, all the families assembled at a cabin for some frolic.
