Martinez, California June 16th 1904. Dear Sellers three- I got home safe sound rich heavy laden with notes, specimens,
photographs nerve pictures every cell of me full tingling joyfully triumpantly, Russian tea, hard wanderings, starvation,
deadly microbes to the contrary notwithstanding found all well prosperous after being away more than a year. I arrived at
San Francisco on the 27th of last month, a few days after reaching home Keith my two girls made me go wandering again along
the Grand Canon diacritic through the Petrified forests of Arizona. So I may say I am just home now. The slightest sketch
of the big trip would be a long story - too long for letter
