Synopsis
On a quiet Christmas Eve, a father is awakened by a clatter outside. Peering out, he witnesses the arrival of St. Nicholas in a sleigh drawn by eight reindeer. The jolly old man enters the house through the chimney, fills the stockings with gifts, and departs, wishing all a 'Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good night!'
