♪ "Is There a Santa Claus?" was the title of an editorial appearing in the September 21, 1897 edition of The Sun of New York. I have mixed the beautiful song "Believe" with the editorial reply; I hope you enjoy my interpretation of this now famous part of Christmas. In 1897, Dr. Philip O'Hanlon, a coroner's assistant on Manhattan's Upper West Side, was asked by his then eight-year-old daughter, Virginia O'Hanlon, whether Santa Claus really existed. Virginia O'Hanlon had begun to doubt there was a Santa Claus, because her friends had told her that he did not exist. Dr. O'Hanlon suggested she write to The Sun, a prominent New York City newspaper at the time, assuring her that "If you see it in The Sun, it's so."

This is dedicated to the dearest friend and neighbor, Mrs. Virginia Sanders, who passed away and has left an empty place in my heart; I miss you!
