Dear Momma, The baby is just as well and sweet and happy as she can be. She has always been perfectly [contentive?] ever since you went away, and I think she would continue to be so were you to stay away a month. She writes letters every day to "dear Mamma and Papa" and is always asking "when you are coming home. Spends the time in all manner of plays, [illegible] on her little [stairs?], setting the [table?] with her little dishes, looking oer the pictures, and helps me at …

Yosemite Valley,
July 6, 1884.

Dear Grandpa and Grandma:

How thankful we were this evening to hear from you and little Wanda. Why did you not telegraph? John was so anxious that he became really miserable. He entreats you to keep the baby away from hot water and from those hall doors. As soon as you get this telegraph, "Baby all right," if all is well. John's eyes fill with tears whenever I speak of the baby, but we are thankful we did not try to bring her, for the ride on Thursday was perfectly awful, in an old stage, …

I suppose you will have formed the acquaintance of your brother-in-law, Willis Hand, by this time. He is making quite an ex- tensive trip.

How I wish Mary could have gone with him. But Willis has two little boys I suppose it looked impossible to them. We are all about as usual here. Father is failing, I think, alhtough he seems quite vigorous at times. Little Ethel is the pet - & comfort - of the entire family Father says she is a delightful child.

Joanna & Walter send love to you all-

Hoping that you are all well …

I wish you would come down and try him now. I am sure …

Dowagiac, Mich., June 6, '84. My greatly respected friend John Muir,It is true that I am still in the land of the living. I imagined yon might be curious to know just so much, as worthless as it is to know it. An old man, past 82 years, quite infirm and becoming blind with all. Still memory keeps me jogging along in the journey of thought, and how often has memory jogged me back to Yosemite Valley and the little or short, but exceedingly pleasant interviews I had with you and our conversations in regard to glacier action which gave …
