Cal. My dear Mr. Muir:- I see by the morning paper that you are contemplating a trip abroad. There are two or three favors
I would like to ask of you before you go,and when you do go,I will throw the best old boot after you I have got in my possession,and
I have quite a number. First,I want your photograph,possibly for reproduction in The Traveler ,if you don't object,and the
privilege of using something from picturesque California'from you. Then I beg of you to spare enough of your valuable time
to take a run out to the Golden Gate Park before you go . May I hear from you at an early date,and if you have decided to
leave very soon,I would take a day and run up to see you. Very truly, THE TRAVELER, 01440
