  My Dear Walt Whitman

For the sake of the good your works & life have done me I should have liked to have called on you to say "Goodbye"—as I am retiring from the sea—but—I found a family affair, which caused me some astonishment & some pain which took up all my time.

I hope to join the friends at Bolton Lancs​ & to hear of you from time to time

Wishing you goodbye I am yours sincerely L. Morrell
