What You Missed: Pater Yule

 At Black and White each year, a white mailbox magically appears somewhere on the grounds. People who make the trek to find the mailbox are able to write letters to Pater Yule, the mythical figure who bestows joy and gifts at Yuletime. Each year at Uncle Cecil's Tavern, Pater Yule appears at some point during the evening and hands out gifts and notes to good boys and girls in answer to the letters he received earlier this year. Below is a selection of photos documenting Pater Yule's appearance this year. [Editor's note: photos by View Staff]
