Five page handwritten letter from Frederick William Kellogg to his daughters Florence Ellen Scripps Kellogg and Dorothy Winifred Kellogg, dated August 5, 1898, on stationery from the circulation department of the Kansas City World where Frederick worked. The paper was part of the Scripps-McRae League of newspapers. The letter reads: Dear Ellen & Dorothy: I think a great deal of you and of William also but he is so little that I am writing this letter to you and you can tell William what I say. It is pretty warm here in Kansas City but there are lots of nice trees and parks and Ellen will remember the part at Fairmount where I used to swing here last year when she and Mamma and Aunt Janine were here. It seems very long since I have seen you all and it is a long time. I love you both very much and William too. He must be a pretty big boy now. I send you some pictures and some gum and I hope you will keep well and happy. Mamma writes me that you are good girls and that makes me very happy and proud of you. I love you so much that I would like to hug you awfully hard and kiss you very much. I send you some kisses. ooooooooooooooooooooo Your Loving Papa, Will.
