2 Hetchy Valley Canon I discovered another grove of Torrey illegible procured seeds from there also.. I shall attend to
all of your botanical wants at once, packing as you direct.. The Gulla percher? cloth is received. I brought you down sections
of Pinns flexilis Abies Williamso illegible from foot of Lyell, but some woodsaving cook has burned them. I am glad to know
that all of your visit to our Pacific gardens was so satisfactory to you. If you Mrs Gray had only exposed yourselves to the
plants rocks waters glaciers of our glorious High Sierras I would have been 3 content to have you return to your Cambridge
classes to all of the just proper ding dong of civilization. Agassiz comes not this year to Yosemite, Mrs Ag' writes me that
they may visit us in indefinite year or two. My experiments made on the glaciers of the summits back of Yosemite, fully
prove that they are alive, are living the whole life of glaciers as well as the most orthodox of the swiss alps Give me
work Doctor for I am heavy laden with obligations. - With kindest regards to mrs Gray yourself. I am ever yours, John Muir
