Ify deAr Ifr. liulr; A recent absence from the city has delayed me in acknowledging the receipt of your loiig looked-for manuscript and in replying to yoa* kind letters. The paper is good and we are rery glad to have it* Ify only regret is that you did not make it loiter, so as to include the interesting story of your early explorations. I am now reading it carefully, and selecting as max^ illustrations as possible to go with it. I am Tery glad to know that you have got rid of the grippe, and am not surprised that you are still panting for the wilderness. I hope to g^t off late in July and to spend at least a month in the Sierra. Of course I shall hunt you up, and I hope it will he possi- ble for you to go id th me into the mountains* I note your request toVemembev^ to my father. Unhappily he died in February. I enclose herewith one of his photogrc4>hs, lAiieh I am sure both you and Mrs. liuir will be glad to see. With best wishes, and maiqr thanks for the manuscript.
