My dear Mr Muir:-

If I excuse you from wrriting " Geologic California", will you undertake the scenic part of it,as you indicated in your first letter. If you will,it will take about 2400 words or five or six pages. I hope you will not disappoint us in this matter,as it is very important that this work should be well done,and I know of no one who can do it as well as yourself.

Yoursvery truly,

[illigible]

John Muir Esq,
