If children were writing to their father, Dear Sir or Honored Sir would most likely be important to start the letter. the letter closing was probably closed "With great respect,"

Or "Dutiful father".

After writing the letter they would sprinkle sand to dry the wet ink. But they would also put wax on the folded letter since there were no envelopes and there was no other way to secure the letter.
