I probably read that short story 55 years ago in English Lit. but it is still worth the read, so I did. O. Henry could write a story. Wonder if he is still celebrated as a good story writer in this day of common core standards?

I thought that your link would lead to an O’Henry story I had neither read nor imagined—instead it leads to the one that everyone who knows an O’Henry story knows.
