(Original letter in possession of Mrs. Sarah Muir GallowayMartinez, May 7, 1912.Dear Sister Sarah:I was very glad to get your long letter telling the news of all the family and am so thankful all are in good health.

Martinez, April 31, 1912 Dear Miss Kellogg: Your kind holiday greeting has just come to hand on my return from South America and Africa.

Only a wild enthusiastic naturalist may be pardoned for asking friends to take such risks. Anyhow I went alone, and with usual good luck have returned in good health, like Tam O’ Shanter over a’ the ills of life victorious, and …
