The ever recurring thought comes, to me to ask you for your Autograph, and now I do. This is the first time in a life of sixty years, that I have ever made such a request of anyone.
I have two of your books, Leaves of Grass, and Two Rivulets; they have been a light to my steps, these many years.
Yours most truly, Julia A. J. Perkins. Baldwinsville Onondaga Co. N.Y.
