Original letter returned to Mrs.J.B. MoChesney Martinez, April 29, 1913. Sear Mrs. MoChesney. I am glad to hear from
you after so long a silence recalling lang syne days. From Clara I got news of you all, but you may be sure I shall enjoy
renewing acquaintance ere long. To old friends we naturally cling all the closer as the evening of life draws nigh. I thank
you for your kind congratulations. Eight days ago I was exactly three quarters of a century old. Remember me to Alice and
George and believe me, Ever faithfully yours, John Muir My last word from our dear friend. S. MoC. 05432
