104 Martinez, Oct 27/09 Dear Mr Johnson I had a good telling time with the President Taft Sec. Ballinger in Yosemite
Hetch Hetchy. Everything looks promising for our side of the fight. tho of course nothing quotable has yet been given out
Colby the club are hard at work on a new pamphlet plans to get at least the Hetch Hy part of the garfield grant revoked legislation
to stop for good the violation of national parks in general. Just as I was leaving the park took a severe cold like grippe
have been laid up ever since with perpetual b illegible ing headache. But am getting better hope to be able to work soon
Ever faithfully yours John Muir
