SEATTLE, WASH., Sept.. 15,lS0t' Mr. John Muir, Pres. Sierro Club, San Fr?ncisco, Gel. My Dear Mr. Muir: As a representative
of the Mountaineers, the northern mountain clab of the Pacific coast, I would like to ask you. to write a few lines of greeting
to the Mountainecrs for publiestion in the coming issue of our bulletin. We have just finished our third year of mountain
work with splendid success, and have climbed a mountain which you know qyuite well, Mt. Rainier and were fortunate in having
in our party a man who climbed with you, Major E. S. Ingraham. We of the Pacific Coast have learned to look to you for the
finest things of our mountains, and if you could favor us at this time with a short line of personal greeting to our club,
it would help us very much and would also increase the feeling of friendleness between your club and ours. The two clubs have
so much in common and so many friends in common that it seems that we ought to know each other better then we do. Yours
very truly, illegible Ghairman Outing Committee MOUNTAINEERS. 627. illegible 045854 n j - C / QXlx
