Dear Mr. Muir:
I ought to have written a formal acknowledgment to you and your wife of the receipt of that precious little package, so significant in its contents, and for which I was truly grateful.
It found me confined to bed, so that I was not able to immediately reply, and having guests at that time and for some days after I have deferred expressing my congratulations from necessity. I think my former excellent health is returning to me, for yesterday and to-day I have accomplished great things.

The glacial, botanical, & general landscape developments are on the grandest & most telling scale imaginable not only here but all the way up from Puget Sound. With the exception of a few hours sail in two or three places open to the ocean on one side the whole voyage has been in a narrow river-like channel mostly between bold impressive mountains very densely tree clad down to the waters edge cascades pouring down on either side from the snowy summits. It was hard to believe that we were sailing on …

Your note was duly received last Wednesday evening -many thanks for your interest in my affairs.
