letterhead in margin: Aug 26 150wide 2 to 3 ft deep Ann Arbor, November 14 1893 My dear Muir: In conversation with
you while in route for Alaska, in 1890, you told about a lake somewhere in southeastern Alaska. of the same nature as Ma illegible
n lake. Switzerland. As? the lake referred to has never been illegible so far as I am aware, I venture to ask if you will
kindly send me a few facts concerning it. Will you tell me what glacier holds it in check? its l location, size etc. I wish
to use the information in a t illegible book I am preparing and will give full credit. Hoping that you can oblige me. I remain
sincerely your Israel C. Russell Ann Arbor. Mich. 01745
