letterhead P.O. Sta. B. Feby 29 - 1908 My dear Sir, Since coming to Calif. some years since, I've made many excursions
in the mountains, and want to make some more - specially in the north part of the state - I find it a perfect inspiration,
to a lover of the mountains, to read your articles - I have your work on the mountains, of course, and many magazine articles
- I've been told that there are two, or three, other published books by you but I cannot obtain them from book dealers - Would
you oblige one who greatly enjoys, and profits by, your work, and through this work very greatly admires the writer of them,
with the titles of your other books and the address of the publisher or dealer 04075
