Transcription:
illegible 10 Martinez Oct 24, 1891 My dear Mr Johnson. I am pegging away at Alaska. I am trying to make a lot of telling
pictures of the Glaciers, forests Indians etc together with bits of adventure narritve etc. It is not easy to write to order,
no doubt I will write much that you don t want But you can take what you do want leave the balance. I send you herewith a
lot of photographs in a few days will send copies of some of the best of my sketches taken where camera have not yet reached.
Also a map of the Mt. Glacier. I have been sinfully busy of late or the M. S would be already in your hands. I congratulate
you most heartily on your copyright honors. You deserved them all more. Ever Cordially yours John Muir
