Transcription:
Martinez, Oct. 28, 1896 My dear Johnson I am home settled after a long eventful summer I suppose ere this You have seen
Sargent know where we have been the work we have done. I fondly hope that now something permanent will be done for the management
of our grand woods. The parks of the Sierra are in Capital order if the authority of the military could be extended over
the Sierra reservation it would be as well cared for as the parks without calling for a single soldier more or the expense
of another dollar I mean to tackle that old dog story soon With best wishes Ever Yours John Muir 10020
