Love to you all(Dont let my notes burn)John Muir[2]to go on to Cambridge.I mean to start tomorrow if Mother is as well & hopeful as she is today. I fear I may not have money enough on account of unlooked for expenses, so you had better send $100.00 to Sarah with which to pay the return railway fares of Dan, Mary & her Helen. & a little more for Joanna who is sadly discouraged.
