letterhead 12 illegible 13 St. Andrew Square, Glasgow, 20th Apl '06 My dear Professor, I trust that neither your nor
your family have suffered bodily or material loss thro the awful catastrophe which has happened at your door. If half the
news our papers give about the damage by earthquake fire is true then Fresco at present must be in an awful plight. I hope
to learn of your safety - With kind regards, Yrs sincerely And. McLennan Jno. Muir Esq Matrinez Cal. 03712
