Transcription:
First draft of letter, in note-book Martinez. Nov. 19. 1902. Mrs. A. D. Sharon, Palace hotel, S. F. Dear Madam: I
am sorry to say that I cannot be present tomorrow at the meeting of the committee in charge of the California Club's bill
for saving the Calaveras Big Trees. I am heartily with yon, however, and at a recent Directors meeting of the sierra Club
it was resolved that we do all in our power to assist the California Club in this noble work, and a committee was appointed
to confer with yours for concerted action. Bidding you Godspeed, and devoutly praying your efforts may be crowned with complete
success, i am, faithfully yours, John Muir 03098
