Transcription:
letterhead 2621 De illegible St San Francisco, Nov 23/04 Mr John Muir Martinez Cal. Dear Sir: I respectfully ask
your assistance in our efforts to preserve the historic names of California. I enclose a copy of a letter I am sending out
to various societies, colleges c, and a draft of my proposed letter to the head of the postal department. If the subject appeals
to you I would be very glad to have your help: and if, in addition to a communication to the department, you saw fit to address
a letter to the president, I am sure it would be most effective. Regarding myself, my good friend, Rev. Joseph Worcester
has authorized me to use his name. Very respectfully Joeth T.? Eldredge 03470
