My dear Reid—
As you might possibly have room in the paper—& a full report might hit—I send you a complete copy of my lecture, to take the chances for to-morows paper—(As I calculate, it would make about three quarters of a column of small type)—
—My plan is to break the tedium of my half invalidism from time to time (& also collect a few shekals) by getting engagements as a lecturer & reader,—& this is an attempt to break the ice.
Walt Whitman[16]
