Transcription:
letterhead May 15th, 1893. My dear Mr. Muir, I am in receipt of your letter in regard to a meeting of the Directors
of the Sierra Club. With your permission I will call the meeting for a week from Saturday, as I shall be in Calistoga next
Saturday, and I fear that it may not be possible to get together a illegible for this week. I am surprised at Olney s favoring
Irish for such a position. I suppose it is personal friendship. I certainly shall do what little I can to disappoint Col.?
Irish s hopes. I received a letter from Pres. Jordan saying he could not preside at a general meeting of the Club before April
5th. Yours sincerely, Wm. D. Armes. Mr. Reid writes me that the Tahoe scheme is a go. He has taken 25 acres of land.
