lst.'97 My dear Mr Muir:- If I excuse you from wrriting Geologic California , will you undertake the scenic part of it,as
you indicated in your first letter. If you will,it will take about 2400 words or five or six pages. I hope you will not disappoint
us in this matter,as it is very important that this work should be well done,and I know of no one who can do it as well as
yourself. Yoursvery truly, illigible John Muir Esq, Martinez, Cal. 02267
