John Muir Correspondence (PDFs)

232 N. Ala. St., Indianapolis,

April 8th, 1881.

My dear Friends:

I thank God that He has in His goodness brought to your hearts this treasure. We all rejoice with you. Janet says, "Ah, this baby will be a poet.

Law Abridgment: Closing Address Delivered Before The Graduating Law Class Of The University Of Michigan, March 20, 1879., James V. Campbell

Books

We hear on all sides complaints of the increasing mass of printed Reports and text-books, which it is said the lawyer must find some means of mastering, but which no life is long enough to read. The young lawyer, as he scans the dreary catalogues, and wonders what Croesus can buy or what brain can learn all this lore, is sorely puzzled what books to choose from the thousands that have found printers.
