"Yes, Virginia...."

Back in September of 1897, a little eight-year-old girl named Virginia O'Hanlon wrote a letter to The Editor of the New York Sun newspaper, asking if there really was a Santa Claus. An editorial writer there, Francis Pharcellus Church, promptly wrote back to her in the form of an editorial in the paper, published on September 21, 1897, and it has become famous all over the world as "Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus". Merry Christmas, Everyone!
