Transcription:
MUIR LODGE Los Angeles, July 31st, 1914. Mr. John Muir, Martinez, Calif., Dear Mr. Muir:- Allow me to thank you,
in the name of the Southern California Section of the Sierra Club, for your most generous contribution to its expansion fund.
We have all of the carpenter work done, and you may truthfully feel that you have contributed that portion of the work. It
is the means of providing shelter for the men of our Club during the rainy months in years to come. The gift is as generous
as it was unexpected, and words cannot express the feeling that we all have. With very best wishes for your health and happiness.
Sincerely yours, illegible PSB*H05805
