Mr. John Muir,
On the Harriman Expedition,
Victoria, B C.

My dear Muir,

I have your letter from Alaska and am very sorry that I am not with you.I write you now hastily, to say that Mr. Ernest Seton Thompson, author of "Wild Animals I have Known," (whose work you doubtless know) is going to California and will present a card to you. He and his wife are very attractive and great out-door people, besides being scientific and knowing all about animals and things. I suggest that when Burroughs goes down to the Yosemite with you- as of course he will- you let the Thompsons go with you. They will arrive in San Francisco about the 25th of August.

My love to Burroughs.

Faithfully yours,

R.u,Johnson02602
