Transcription:
First draft of letter, in note-book 59 (26) Dec.. 1901 Dear Sir: I am, as you know, heartily interested in the Sequoia
and other national parks, their preservation, roads rendering them accessible, etc., and I have no doubt Captain Andrews has
done his duty as Superintendent of the Seq uoia and Gen. Grant Nat. Parks. But as I have no personal knowledge of the reasons
required by the President for the retention of Cap. Andrews, I am sorry to say it seems to disqualify me to act in the matter.
