OFFICE: 602 MARKET STREET, CROCKER BUILDING. SAN FRANCISCO, CAL. November 20, l894. Dear Mr. Muir: -When are you coming
to make a day with Keith and myself to Stanford University and our Log Cabin ? How about some day the early part of next week,say
Tuesday or Wednesday ? If this is agreeable to you kindly drop me a note a few days ahead so that I will notify Keith and
be prepared to guide you around Palo Alto and San Mateo. Wife and I have been reading Mountains in California ,by John Muir
Found it exceedingly interesting. I have clipped from this book a column of the Water Ouzel, for December No. which I think
will interest childrenas well as grown folk. I am sorry not to be able to illustrate the short article,I am also sorry that
your book was not better illustrated,but of that we will talk at greater length when you come down our way. Yours very truly,
