1 Raymond, Fresno Co., Cal. Jan. 16, 93 Dear Mr. Johnson: I send you a copy of the report of the Yosemite Com rs:
also, with this note, an editorial from the Chronicle, evidently called out by your article in this month s Century. I have
read that article with great interest, and hope that it will stir up folks; who have the means, to make an effort to move
the Legislature. I m afraid that I ll not be able to get to Sacramento. I would have liked much to have seen Special Agent
Weigel s report in full. I doubt about its being a very effective picture of the condition of the Yosemite. The way he speaks
of Clark (in the extract published in your article) shows that that venerable fraud s white beard and soft manner humbugged
the special agent, as they have done for a good many other people. 06428
