Dear Sir:-
The American Forestry Association proposes to hold a two days' session, October 19th and 19th, in Chicago, under the auspices of the World's Congress Auxiliary; the printed circulars on the subject have not yet come to hand from Chicago, or I should enclose some to you.
Can you not be present to take part in our meeting and, if possible, read a paper on some forest subject with which you may be familiar; perhaps on your work in behalf of the forests in the Yosemite Valley ?
Yours truly,
