Cloudy warm pleasant—feeling fairly (the main bother is this catarrhal, or whatever it is, head malady, quite bad much of the time)—Herbert Gilchrist here last evening—bowel action sufficient & regular at present—go out in my wheel chair toward latter part of afternoon—
Saturday, toward sundown—A brisk rattling thunder shower—(will probably change the temperature)—have relish'd my supper, a bit of beef steak & some bread pudding—if it were not for this "cold in the head" I w'd feel quite tolerable—rainy & warm & no getting out for me in the wheel chair to-day—n'importe—thankful for feeling as well as I do—
Sunday 16th near noon—Have had a bath, & am going in wheel chair to Harned's, to lunch, & spend a couple of hours—(The family goes off in the mountains next Wednesday)—Pleasant here, but pretty warm—y'rs rec'd—have been reading the N Y and Phil. Sunday papers—sitting here in 2nd story, Mickle—alone—
Best love to all Walt Whitman
