A pioneer in the redwood forest salutes you, greets you with love sincerest and best. embraces you with her whole being, as the one chief among men and altogether lovely.
"This is no book Who touches this, touches a man"I feel it. I know it.


Nothing that I ever read so filled me with joy and gladness
Sitting solitary in the forest, bathed in the warm sunlight with the cool breeze whispering to me, I know that we are akin and am thankful. I take the kiss you give. I know it was especially for me
You will take my kisses and love as from me that knows you and can never forget you


I have received so much that I must make some return be it ever so little.
John Burroughs more than any one that I know, fitly expresses my thought of you. I love him for it.
I have never met any one that seemed to have the faintest understanding of you so I keep you all to myself locked in my heart of hearts.
Kate A. Evans.
