Natick, Mass May 19th 1913. Dear Mr Muir: Just a wee bit scart to say that your kind letter, and book arrived together
last Friday morning. I am not able to fittingly express how much I think of the book and the hearty sentiment inscribed on
the fly leaf. But I can assure you it will be carefully treasured, and will have a place in my book-case alongside of Our
National Parks , and Stickeen. I am glad that my letter carried you back to the Ancient and Royal Burgh. True it is, as you
say, as we go along down the 05455
