A friend of mine whose family is from Floyd County, Virginia told me once when her mother was a child, in the early 1950's, her parents were unable to buy them Santa Claus presents so on the faithful morning the father went outside and fired his gun into the air and came back in and told his children Santa had killed himself. Well, I said it was a BAD Christmas story.............. Truman Adkins Fieldale, Henry County, Virginia <<< >>>> Someone should have called child-protection social services.
