1 letterhead My Dear Johnson I saw Joseffy a few days ago and he says he cannot possibly do that article on Tausig till
after new year--if not later. He has been really ill, suffers constantly from insomnia, has, as you know, been unable on that
account to play in public for several years. My wife attends hi class every Tuesday, we shall keep track of his condition
rope him in as soon as possible. But they are uncertain fellows, these musicians I have just finished reading Muir's California
Mountains, which I shall review for the Nation-Post. What a delightful book, what a glorious way of spending one's life
01865 letterhead Oct 31 1894 Dear J. M. The N. Y. Times had a capital article on your book the other day. How do
you like its appearance? Faithfully Yours R. N. J. 01865
