1 831 N. Street, Saito California Jan 23, 1905 letterhead My dear Mr. Muir, Illness has prevented my thanking
you for your most charming book, which has fascinated me and caused me at times to forget my physical troubles entirely.
We were disappointed not to have you with us during your brief 03516 4 grand Canyon of the Colorado is now intensified
an hundred-fold, in fact, you make us mountain-mad. We appreciate your sending the book very much and the inscription on
its blank page makes it doubly prized. Trusting that we may have you with us next week, Mr. Marshall joins me in best regards.
Sincerely yours, Myra C. Marshall January 23, '05
