Story Time: The Misadventures of John Nicholson: 1

on BBC Radio 4 FM

A Christmas story by Robert Louis Stevenson abridged in five parts by Madge Hart
Read by Fraser Kerr

John Nicholson was fat, good-natured and inclined to take the line of least resistance. He had a young lady to escort home that night, £400 of other people's money in his pocket to take care of, and an assignation at an illegal drinking establishment. He was bound to run into trouble.
