A. U. Hospital Hot Springs Ark 3/10/13 Dear Mr Muir: I recd your letter of Mar. 4th this a.m. Communicating with the office
of the Mountain Vally Springs Co. Club I learned the letter you mentioned had been returned some two or three days ago. I
found however your book Stickeen awaiting me for which accept my sincere thanks. Being unable to write at that time my letter
was dictated to a stenographer at said Club Bldg. She had no plain paper but used the paper advertising the Cos. Business
hence the very natural mistake in addressing me there. In writing you I did not look for corrections or elimination of any
part of The Story of Your Boyhood . I simply desired to acquaint? you with facts as known to me. for in my somewhat varied
experience I appreciate any fact or circumstance that discloses the good or better qualities of our fellow 05392
