Transcription

no exercise, am thinner than ever, flesh vanishing. After it's all gone leaving only bones and joint-ties I'll rattle up a mountain for reincarnationIn the meantime I'm perfectly well, and be assured that no distance no drudging befogment of work ever dims or in any way abates the light of our friendship. Heart radium rays go streaming to you through the Contra Costa hills every day in one grand perpetual visitAnyhow here or there fleshy or fleshless I am ever with love to you allfaithfully affectionatelyJohn Muir
