Synopsis

The  miser  Scrooge passes down a London street the morning before Christmas, on his way to  his   counting   house.   So   much   is   he detested  that  no one speaks to him until a beggar approaches, asks for alms, and is angrily stricken to the ground.  A  spirit  appears  and tells  the  miser  that the beggar will again appear that night. Scrooge approaches his counting house, and  as  he  is  entering,  the  beggar again  appears  before  him.  He  places  his hands before his eyes to shut out  the  apparition,  and  when  he  looks  again  the  figure  has vanished.  The interior of the counting house where Bob Cratchett, the clerk, and Fred, the nephew of Scrooge, are attending to their  duties. Fred  announces  that  he  has  just been married. His bride, together with the crippled  boy,  Tiny  Tim,  enter  the  office.  Looking  out  the window,  they  discover  the approach of Scrooge, and at the advice of Fred the ladies conceal themselves.  Scrooge  enters  and  is  told  of Fred's marriage...
