Transcription:
2013 Kalorama Road N. W. Washington D.C. 9 January 1910. My dear Mr Muir, It was a great pleasure to receive your circular
about the Hetch-Hetchy Valley, and thus to know that you are well and still busy in your good work. I often think of our trip
together through your mountain regions on the Pacific Coast, and wish that fate might bring us together again. Last summer
I dined with Prof Sargent at his home, and met Brewer at New Haven; both were well, as I am myself. Hague I have not seen
for several months, and Pinchot not for years. He is having a lively fight recently, and I hardly think he is getting the
best of it. I wish we were near enough to meet often, but you may be sure that all the good wishes of the season are coming
to you from Your old friend, illegible I am sending by same mall a pamphlet which touches a little on forests. 04676
