Transcription:
First draft of letter, in note-book 59 (9) 1901 Mr. Charles Webb Howard, Dear Sir: No one of the members of the S
ierra Club,do far as I know, is able to give instruction on scientific forestry. Certainly I am not, though we are all interested
in a general way in seeing forest harvests reaped in such ways that the forests shall last forever. I shall with much pleasure
call the attention of the Club to your kind and hopeful request. Very truly yours, J. M. 02890
