John Muir;

"Dear my friend & fellow student, I would [lean?] my spirit oe'r you." Reading your exquisite descriptions in Picturesque California has given me an irresistible impulse to write to you; not to renew our friendship, for I will not admit that that has suffered a moment's break or decline. But I want to hear from you again & to know some things from you. I subscribed for Picturesque Cal. just before leaving Cal. last month, because you were its editor & principal writer. I have received five numbers, & the last …

My Dear Mr. Muir,

I don't suppose you know that I have become a veritable Bostonian - having lived in the vicinity of "the Hub" now for nearly six months. Possibly though Miss Annie, your sister, with whom I carry on an extensive business correspondence, may have told you about me. I am living in a great hotel or apartment house. My room is at the top, a delightful room with a wonderful outlook, [illegible] & steeples for my neighbors. on one side perhaps a mile away the river Charles & beyond it …

Dear Danl & Emma,

It seems a very long time since I have had any nes from either of you - I thought I must write now I hope you are all well, and if your Baby Boy is thriving as well as Joanna's Baby girl he will be doing very well indeed. Joanna is still with us, and Walter is still in Philadelphia and how long he will be there seems to be quite uncertain.

I have just received a letter from John, he has not yet got that large book finished, but expects to …

Dear John and Louie:

Hoping you are all well, I send you this small token of remembrance. Our Christmas meeting is now very small indeed, but our absent ones are by no means forgotten.

The place cannot be left as in that thinly settled country everything that could be carried off would be taken.

Dear Brother John:

Surely there has been a very long silence between us - In your last letter to me - you gave our "diabolical [Stores?]" such a denouncing, that I wanted to write immediately, and could readily have filled several pages, but being hindered at that time just see how the weeks and months have passed. It does not seem

My dear old friend Prof. Butler,

You are not forgotten but I am stupidly busy, too much so to be able to make good use of odd hours in writing. All the year I have from fifteen to forty men to look after on the ranch besides the selling of the fruit, & the editing of Picturesque California & the writing of half of the work or more. This fall I have to contribute some articles to the Century magazine so you will easily see that I am laden. It is delightful to see you in …

He has had many unexpected difficulties to encounter, principally the close money market, and has spent a small fortune on it, forty or fifty thousand dollars, so it is high time something were coming out of it. I am expecting him home now to take us out with him for I am tired of living along. He writes to us …
