Transcription:
Helen Lukens Gaut Magazine Correspondent 182 East Walnut Street Pasadrna ? , Cal. Dec. 21, 1909. My dear Mr. Muir:-
I thank you most sincerely for the splendid testimonial you sent me. Its value to me will be great. In this same mail I am
forwarding the six Illegible booklets, also a tinted photograph of a brook scene that I took in the Klamath River country
this summer, which I hope you will accept with my best greetings. I also enclose a chromo of a homely, but good-natured subject.
Col. Sellers and wife have returned from the East,and are at their home on Calif. St. I believe my father has written you
today. He is well, and very happy with the girls , as he calls his wife and sister-in-law, and I am happy for him. Mr. Gaut
and Ralph join me in wishing you a merry Christmas and Happy New Year, and Lottie sends you her love. She has, and always
has had, an especially warm corner in her heart for dear Mr. Muir. Thanking you again for your dear good letter, I am,
Sincerely yours, Illegible 04655
