  Dear Mr. Whitman:

I began a course of twelve class lectures in Waltham yesterday in which I take up "Walt Whitman's Message." I never have any difficulty in obtaining respectful lectures upon that theme. I hope to speak many times upon it.

I had a very friendly letter from Mr. Burroughs—I am sorry I did not see him as I came through. I want to say also that I did not write that little notice of your book     in Transcript. I am waiting till you send that autograph copy—then I will write a goodly review for Transcript or Elsewhere.— I have not seen Kennedy since returning—nor Baxter. Hope to do so soon.

At earliest possible moment I intend to get that article into shape concerning your work as a landscapist.

I do hope you'll keep gaining in strength—As Burroughs wrote me you were.

With greatest esteem, Hamlin Garland
