My dear Professor Muir:

I received your letter of December 29th just before departing for the Fayûm desert of Egypt. It was great to hear from you and I wish we could see you and tell you of our wonderfully interesting journey into the desert where we got the ancestors of the elephant.

Yours faithfully,

[illegible]Professor John Muir.
