He states its "Christmas Day"
The Ghost warned scrooge to beware of the children. The boy is Ignorance. This girl is Want. Beware them both, and all of their degree, but most of all beware this boy!
24th December 1843 for Jacob Marley and the three ghosts from 1am Christmas day
In the book by Charles Dickens, Scrooge did not throw the boy money to buy the Turkey. Scrooge told the boy, "Go and buy it, and tell 'em to bring it here, that I may give them the direction where to take it. Come back with the man, and I'll give you a shilling. Come back with him in less that five minutes, and I'll give you half-a-crown!" When they brought the turkey back to his house, he paid for the turkey and recompensed the boy.
He says this in reference to a solitary boy left at Christmas time in School - The "poor boy" was in fact Scrooge
The boy who stood in front of Scrooge's house on Christmas was a "solitary child, neglected by his friends." He was a poor, ragged, and hungry boy who wished Scrooge a Merry Christmas but was chased away by him.
