He [Traubel] or I will send you word of Dr B[ucke]'s visit here & whether & when if he comes to Wash'n—He comes with two or three others, (on that invention the meter) & puts up at Dooner's Hotel. I expect him by Wednesday—
All goes as usual with me—am feeling pretty well—to-day the third of rain & dark cloudiness—I send you the Critic to-morrow—a bundle of papers to-night—nothing particular—
Love & prayers— Walt Whitman
