User-Contributed Transcription Kiowa KansasJan 29 1899.Dear Aunties:Roberts and Sister started to write to you and wanted me to write to you too. We study Book-Keeping now and have written in our Day-Book, Journal & Ledger. I like it pretty well. We quit Physical Geography before Christmas. I bought me a second-hand saddle and like it very much. We have a nice riding-horse and I like to ride better than anything else. For Christmas I got a shirt, hat, lantern a pin that you sent me and a nice tie to wear it in. Papa got a hat, a moustache cup & saucer, and a comb from me. Mamma got a double-boiler & a box of nice hair-pins. Roberts got a whole lot of things a doll, a pair of slippers, a silver napkin-ring, a silver spoon from you, and a lot of other things. When he was sick he got two dollars for taking a tea spoonful of medicine and Mamma gave him a calf but he said that he would rather have the calf be part of Mamma's, and the doctor said he would have his pony brought from his claim in the strip for Roberts to ride. Hoping you will write very soonI remain yoursWith LoveHoward.
