Transcription:
San Francisco, Calif., May 5, 1903 S. Nikitkin Geologou en Chief St. Petersburg, Russia. I have the honor of sending
this introduction to you by my friend, Prof. John Muir, L. L. D. Professor Muir visits your country to more freely acquaint
himself with its many interesting features, and particularly its Glacial Geology, in which study he stands in the highest
rank in this country. In grateful and vivid remembrance of the courtesies I received at your hands in 1897, I feel assured
that similar treatment will he accorded my friend, who hears to you my high esteem and compliments. Very respectfully,
