//// x 1 /w SfijF / I Jr IL ® A LETTER FROM SANTA GLAUS.

To the Editor of the Republican I wish to inform you that I will be in your town all this month. Please let all the boys and girls know that I am on my way to Rensselaer. I wrote my friends the little Brownies, for a nice warm home and the dear little chaps sent me word on a ray of sunshine that the enterprising merchant, B. Forsythe, had fitted up expressly for my use the basement and first floor of his fine new up-to-date daylight store

opposite court house. Well Mr. Editor bring your wife and little ones. I havent seen you since you were a little boy. Say! where is that red sled I left for you Christmas night 1860? I bet you had more fun with that old bob than you have running a newspaper. Perhaps its lost but the memory of those rides down the hill will last forever. Send word to your neighbors, tell them I am waiting and they will all be welcome., Your Friend, SANTA CLAUS.
