Transcription:
Martinez Nov 1913 Dear Mr King: I have received with many thanks your magnificent Hetch Hetchy photographs, a very telling
lot. I wish you would send Nos. 945, 948, 949, 953, 954, 958, 962, 963, 964, to Mrs. E. H. Harriman 1, East 69th Street
New York And the same to Mrs Henry Fairfield Osborn, 850 Madison Avenue New York City with my compliments, and of course
charge to me. Where did you find that magnificent sugar pine? The finest specimen I have ever seen in a photograph. How tall
is it, and how large in diameter 4 feet from the ground.? We are having a hard fight for Hetch Hetchy but think we will win.
Help all you can Ever faithfully yours, John Muir
