for you to come and bring me a
soldier suit and a hobby horse
and some candy, apples, nuts
and oranges and some building

I hope it will not be snowing
so you can get around to see all
the little boys and girls. If you
don’t have enough toys to give
all the little boys you can give
them some of mine.
You must excuse my writing as
I am in the second grade.
Santa Clause if you w^ant some
c'lke when you get to my house
just look in the sideboard and
help yourself. I will close rny
letter now. You must be sure
and come to see me Christmas.
Your little boy,
Frank Florence.
