In these chapters, we find out what happens on the first day that three children come to stay with Sir John Penlyon for Christmas. Will he further shut off his broken heart from them or will they charm their way through his gruff exterior? Enjoy the second part of a heart warming Christmas tale! Due to life being crazy and my inability to read a calendar correctly (long story, don't ask) I don't think I'm going to be able to get another regular episode out on Monday this week, but no worries, I will have part 3 of this story out next Friday. I'll also be taking a vacation at the end of July/early August, so there will be a couple weeks break. Here's the Upcoming Schedule for the rest of Christmas in July and August (subject to change): 7/24 Part 3 of The Christmas Hirelings 7/26 Episode 47, Bill from thevillagecollector.com will be back, and other Christmas fun! 7/31 Part 4 of The Christmas Hirelings 8/15 Episode 49 8/30 EPISODE 50!!
