Dear papa,

I want to see
you very much. I think
the engines in Toledo are very
funny. It was so cold here
yesterday morning that we
had a fire. To-day it is very
warm.

Nana has gone to [?]
to-day. How warm is it in
Cincinnati? Are you coming
home in the day-time or in
the night? Please write a letter
if you have time.

Good by
From your little
Eddie.
