Transcription:
Berkeley, Cal.Oct. 17, 1894. Mr. John Muir,My dear Sir: Prof, Walcott is gone northward. We had a very pleasant dinner
on Monday, but missed your genial presence. But I had a lecture that evening and had hardly gotten fairly to work at my dinner,
hadn't yet gotten to the Piece de resistance when I had to leave the table. I cannot bring up Walcott, of course, but as
I have promised to come up and see you I will come next Saturday morning, if it suits you. If so, let me know, and what train
I must take. Perhaps some other tire would suit you better. If so, say so. Very truly yours, Joseph LeConte
