Nothing special—Am somewhat under the weather four or five days—cold in the head or malaria—I sent Shiell's the book 16th Sept.—McKay, my Phila: publisher, has just been over—paid me $77 for royalties for the last eight months—I paid the Camden taxes on my shanty to-day $26—The photos come from Cox all right, & I sign & return them—Wm Carey, at the Century office, seems to be managing the sale & financial part of the matter—I am satisfied with all—H Gilchrist the painter has gone back to England & taken his picture with him—Morse the sculptor is still here (in Phila)—I think the plaster head by him (the 2d head we call it) is the best thing yet. Cloudy & rainy spell of weather here—I havn't been out of the house since last Sunday—have been amusing myself with Pepys' Diary (McKay sent it to me, good edn. 4 vols.)—When you come again, don't forget to bring my Stedman book American Poets—Love to Alma and Al and all of you—
