All quiet here.

The lilacs are not out in the grounds here yet but they will be in a few more days.

"Good-Bye" which was mailed a week ago reached me noon today—have spent an hour looking through it since—it is a most charming little vol.—has not (of course) the power of the early books (either verse or prose) but has a charm of its own which will make it equal, in attractiveness, to any of your books. But I have not half examined it yet and must put off for another letter my dicta upon it.

I am well but not strong and keep very lame so much so that I have grave doubts about geting east 31st much as I want to go—(but I may improve between now and then)

We shall see, meanwhile best love R M Bucke   see notes May 22 1891
