User-Contributed Transcription Osawatomie Feb. 12, 1869. Dear Eddie, How good some body was to fill your stockings so nicely Christmas! Were the shoes put in the stockings. The bow I guess hung on one side, as if it would like to step in, but couldn't come it. I guess the candy dissappeared in some strange way long ago, and the raisins and the almonds; but I guess you have got the bow yet, and your shoes  (aint there a hole in the toe?) and your toy bed. I suppose your toy bed is a span bed, and it is always in nice order. Who do you suppose Santa Claus really is? I have seen pictures of him, a clever looking person with long white beard, kind eyes, very mirthful looking countenance, pretty old. And then I have heard of his clattering over roofs, and coming down chimneys. He seems especially fond of little boys, and finds out just what they want. Now he wouldn't put any thing in
