K.C. Mo- June 15- 1885

Dear Brother John;

I know you want to hear from me and so write a few lines. Writing is still very hard for me or I would have written sooner.

I am nearly recovered from my recent attack. [squiggle] Am able to sit. up nearly all day. and to take short rides again.

My lungs have not been injured by it; and the doctor says they are doing well. He advises a change

to a cooler climate, and I intend going home to Portage as soon as I am able to trave;; which I …

Carmilita June 11.

Dear Dr.

The enclosed letter will explain itself. Mrs Jackson is one of our most gifted women & authors but as 'crochety' as it is the privilege of genius to be. She broke her leg early in the fall, a '[commcrated?] compound fracture' and came for the third time to Los A. to winter.

She laid in a crowded boarding house with bad courage, and taking little bodily exercise - was even poisoned. She has fallen into the hands of a [vanity?] of homeopaths who make a good thing of it I fancy. …

1600 Taylor St.,
San Francisco, June 8, 1885.

My dear Mr. Muir,

I want some help from you. I have been terribly ill for four months, severe malarial poisoning contracted in Los Angeles.
The doctors say that in six weeks I may be strong enough to be laid on a bed in a wagon and drawn about. I know, with the certainty of instinct, that nothing except three months out of doors night and day will get this poison out of my veins. I want to get where it is cool, and moist, and among trees. I cannot endure heat. …

Oakland, Cal., May 22, '85.

Mr, Muir,
Dear Sir:

I have been having some of your cherries, and the name of John Muir is really a scarce name, so I thought I would write you a few lines to see if you were any relation of mine. I was born in Renfrew Shair near Glasgow in Scotland at a little place called Busby. My father's name was "Walter", a farmer at the above named place, and did not know whether you were any relation or not. If you …

Martinez April 20, 1885

Dear Brother David.

I am very sorry to learn the sad bereavement you & your children have suffered in the death of your dear good wife though an account of her long suffering of pain one could not wish that her life should have been prolonged. Sad as separation from loved ones always is yet it is a very consoling through that the separation is never for long. for we invariably follow them. Night comes to all._ the night of death as surely as the night of a single day …

Dear brother John:_

I have been putting off writing to you for some time hoping that writing might not be necessary but that instead we might see you "in the flesh" and renew our acquaintance with you. Annie's letter however seems to indicate that you are uncertain when you can leave your vine yardes and "worldly goods". We shall most
