ARNOLD ARBORETUM, HARVARD UNIVERSITY.

Jamica Plain, Mass., January 2, 1897

My dear Muir:

That handsome shrub with smooth red bark and minute leaves which we saw in the cañon below Hemet valley is Adenostoma sparsifolium, a species which is confined to that part of the state and which I -had not seen before.
I am now able to get about a little without crutches and mean to start for Washington next week to see if I can do anything about reservations.

Faithfully yours,
C. S. Sargent

John Muir, Esq.
