Martinez, Sep. 1, 1913. After finishing enclosed leaflet, over two weeks ago I went to the Harriman Idaho Ranch for a short
visit, from which I have just returned. I had good reason to believe that Bade diacritic Colby would have the leaflet ready
for distribution by the 20th of last month at latest, but from unaccountable delays it is not yet ready. Bade diacritic is
writing a book about God Colby is to be absent from the city Hetch Hetchy for a month But fortunately Parsons will be back
from the north today we will make these leaflets fly in merry flocks. Expect to rouse Los Angeles region get women's clubs
to speak. Best of all is your open letter
