Horace was here last evn'g—the dinner B[ook] it seems was not put to press yet f'r some reason, but was to be this forenoon

Miss Gould's little "Gems from W W" is out, (a finished specimen any how)—it makes a neat looking little oblong booklet—what it may am't to we will see—

The most uncanny item of my news it that Ed is going to leave here & go back to Canada (London I believe) for the purpose of finishing his veterinary studies—

I am ab't as usual (my less uncomfortable feet foremost) to-day—bowel evacuation—breakfast an egg & bread & honey—

Mrs. O'C[onnor] seems to be in Boston yet—I guess fairly well—weather fine here to-day—Harry Stafford was here—he is well—Kennedy is busy at MS of Whittier's life (something of a pot boiler I fancy f'r him)—nothing lately f'm Mrs. Costelloe or the Smiths—New York Johnston was here (returning f'm Templars' racket at Washington)—I am going to try & get out in the air in wheel chair to-day—

Love to all—

Walt Whitman
