The "man" was a philanthropist and business man who had asked for a donation to help the poor and need at this special time of year. Scrooge had refused him asking if there were no prison or work houses that these people could go to . In that last stave of the book Scrooge begs for the mans' forgiveness and makes an undisclosed offering to him for the needy and Scrooge mad the donation a large one to make up for all the ones he'd previously refused.
