Transcription:
Martinez, Cal., Jan. 1, 1914. Dear Mr. Mc Ilhaney: The flowers of the High Sierras I like best are Cassiope and Bryan
thus; of tree flowers, Magnolia grandiflora and the African Baobab (Adansonia digitata) are favorites. But I have so many
others on all the continents I am unable to name them in a letter or in hundreds of letters. They come thronging about me
in such loving multitudes a score of volumes could not hold them all. With best wishes for success in your flowery work,
I am, Faithfully yours, John Muir.
