"At Christmastime, more than all the Christmas cards, more than all the symbols of Christmas, for me, growing up as a small boy in Teampall an Ghleanntain, the prime symbol of Christmas was the parcel from America. And every family had a relative in America, and they would send home a parcel at Christmastime. And in that parcel would be a big pile of clothing that they had accumulated in America over the previous year. And very often in that parcel would be an envelope stuffed with dollars. And I can tell you that for many families, more cash money would come into the house in that envelope at Christmastime than in the course of the whole year that had preceded it. So that parcel was looked forward to with the same glee and anticipation by grown men and women as young children look forward to Santy Claus. For this was the real Christmas present at that time in Teampall an Ghleanntain from the United States of America.”
