Transcription:
Original in possession of Rev, John G. Taylor, Arlington, Mass. Martinez, Cal., June 7, 1913. Dear Mr. Taylor: Many
thanks for your kind letter full of Auld lang syne University days, with their fondly cherished memories. Can you give me
Charlie Vroman's address? I have not seen him since I left Madison. I don't remember Bicknell, but I must hunt him up next
time I go to Los Angeles. Rice and Blake were my companions on a botanical excursion to Prairie du Chien when I left the University.
Blake is a physician in Brooklyn, N.Y, I met Bradford Torrey years ago in Boston, and in Yosemite Valley a few months before
his death. I have his last book. He was a fine character beloved by all who really knew him . I'm glad to learn that you
have lived so fine and useful a life, and I shall look forward to meeting you before sundown. Faithfully yours, John Muir.
