Transcription:
letterhead BELMONT, CALIFORNIA My address for a week will be Tahoe Pines Lake Tahoe Dear Prof. Bade, I have just written
to Mr Wm. E. Colby, Sect. of The Sierra Club, telling him of a conversation I had with Mrs Rieber while looking at her portraits
of professors Palmer, Royce James. She said that she thought John Muir's portrait should be painted and placed where it would,
in a measure, be accessible to the public, and that she would like to do the painting. It seems to me that the Sierra Club
would be exactly the body to take the matter up. I heartily agree with Mrs. Rieber I shall be glad if you think it worth while
to talk it over with Mr. Colby and other members of the Club. Very sincerely W. T. Ried Sept. 17, '14 09850
