be in Oakland in two weeks & so I made up a package for you of lily bulbs, cones, ferns etc but she wrote me a few days ago that she was still in the valley. I find that a portion of my specimens collected in the last two years and left at this place & Hopeton are not very well cared for & I have concluded to send them to you. I will ship them in a few days by express & I will be down myself perhaps in about a year. If there is anything in these specimens …

John Muir Correspondence (PDFs)

Oakland, Oct. 2, [1870]

Dear John Muir:

I write as usual with the whip of neglected things suspended over me, but I must tell you that Ned has gone to South America -- sails from Boston this week (probably on Tuesday) to join the Bolivian Commercial and Colonization Company, Mr. A. D.Piper of San Francisco, Prest. Two years ago one Col. Church, well known in Washington circles, got a grant or concession from Brazilian and Bolivian governments for the navigation of the waters of the upper Amazon, and Mr. A. D. Piper then at LaPaz and in favor with the …

[Autumn, 1870]

My [dear] Kenmuir:

What do you mean by not writing to me? Here are all the ferns turned golden, and the oaks and maple every shade of yellow, and the sky ten times as blue and the pines still tree more green, and the chipmunks are nearly letting me catch them, and everything is doing its duty but you. I have got my hero up to Glacier Point from whence he will soon come headlong down in spite …

[1] Squirrelville [Autumn, 1870] Sequoia Co Nut time

Dear Mrs Carr Do behold the king in his glory, King Sequoia. Behold! Behold! seems all I can say Sometime ago I left all for Sequoia & have been & am at his feet fasting & praying for light, for is he not the greatest light in the woods ; in the world. Where is such columns of sunshine, tangible, accessible, terrestrialized. Well may I fast, not from bread but from business, bookmaking, duty doing & other trifles, & great is my reward already for the manly treely sacrifice. What giant truths …

Dear sir, I trust that the latter part of your long vacation ramble was as full of scientific & universal joy as the week that I had the happiness of spending with you, Doubtless you are home again, & with your classes, & have answered all the uppermost outside questions of your friends relative to your journey, & I come to you now to beg a letter fa[illegible] or so if observations made after we part- ed. upon whatever you think will most interest me. I reached the highest of those volcanic …

Yosemite Sep' 13th 1870

Dear friend Rat[illegible] I was really glad to hear from you, I enjoyed all your letter except- ing the first half page which was wasted upon apology & I don't think it strange at all that you should write to me because I know that yours is a nature that requires sympathy always, just as you require daily bread, & now that the old home at the lake is lost, & so many of your family scattered, & above all that your beloved mother the great earthly fountain of all unfailing sympathy for all your family …

Ocasionally if you possibly can We heard from the wandering John Jacob last week who is well and happy as ever; all of the other members of the family are tolerably well, with the exception of David's poor little Willie who has for some time been quite sick, I saw him last Sunday when he was a little better, but oh so poor and wasted; he does not weigh much more than Maggie's little boy' now. Mother and myself are going down to Portage today, to stay over Sunday and go to church. Mother wrote to you on your …

Yosemite Aug 20th [1870]

Dear friend Mrs Carr, I have just returned from a ten days ramble with Prof Le Conte & his students in the beyond & Oh we have had a most glorious season of terrestrial grace I do wish I could ramble ten days of equal size in very heaven that I could compare its scenery with that of Bloody Canon & the Tuolumne Meadows & Lake T[illegible] & that Dana Our first camp after leaving the valley was at Eagle Point overlooking the valley on the north side from which a much better general view of …
