A Letter from Santa Claus:
SANTA-CLAUSVILLE, Dec. 18, 1893.
PEASE & MAYS,
The Dalles, Ore.
Gentl emen:
I have your of the 10th inst. asking if it would be possible for
me to visit The Dalles this Chris traas-time . I have had most excellent
reports of the behavior during the past year of the children in your
City, and have finally decided to pay you visit. Shall endeavor to
reach your store, where I intend to make my Headquarters while in The
Dalles, by half-past two Saturday afternoon. It is possible that, owing
to the bad condition of the roads, for we cannot travel nearly as fast
as if the ground were covered with snow, and also because I have had the
misfortune to lose two of my pet Reindeers, Comet and Vixen, I may be a
little late. I am disappointed in not being able to have a present for
all that I may meet while in your city, but I will send on some Candy
and Pop Corn for the children, and a more useful present for their
mothers. You may say to all the children of The Dalles, who have been
good boys and girls for the past year, that I will be in your store
Saturday afternoon and evening, to shake hands with them and wish them
A MERRY CHRISTMAS. Yours Truly,
SANTA-CLAUS.
