San Francisco, November 8, 1905. 

 Secretary Sierra Club, San Francisco, Cal. 



Dear Sir: Your reply of October 27th to my letter of July 

 15th, regarding resolutions to name a mountain peak after Juni- 

 per© Serra, adopted by the Grand Parlor of the Native Daughters 

 of the Golden West, has been received by me. 



I have read v/ith particular attention the report of Professor 

 Davidson, and sincerely thank the Sierra Club for the suggestion 

 he embodies therein. 



His report shall be considered by the committee together with 

 other suggestions that have been received. 

 With appreciation of your courtesy, I am, 

 Yours very truly, 



Lilly O. Reichling Dyer, 

 Chairman committee naming mountain peak. 



Washington, D. C, June 7, 1905. 

 Secretary Sierra Club, San Francisco, Cal. 



Dear Sir: I have to acknowledge, with many thanks, your 

 courteous note of May 31st, in which you inform me of my elec- 

 tion as an Honorary Vice-President of the Sierra Club. It gives 

 me great pleasure to accept the position, and I beg that you will 

 express to the Board of Directors my appreciation of the honor 

 which has been done me. 



Very truly yours. 



GiFFORD PiNCHOT. 



Stanford University, Sept. 14, 1905. 

 Secretary Sierra Club, San Francisco, Cal. 



Dear Sir: Your kind letter notifying me of my election as 

 Honorary Vice-President of the Sierra Club I find on my desk 

 on my return from Europe. I take pleasure in accepting the 

 honor, and I feel that it is a great one. As a member of your 

 Board of Directors I was able to do but little on account of the 

 great pressure of my duties here and of outside matters in which 

 I am interested. At the same time, I have the deepest interest 

 in the work of the Sierra Club, and doubt if any other society to 

 which I belong comes as near to my heart as that. Perhaps I 

 should have found it necessary to attend meetings oftener if I 

 had not found the Board of Directors always so admirably com- 

 petent. Very truly yours, 



David S. Jordan.
