I give to my good friend Horace Traubel the Sarrazin book which I have had so much pleasure in translating from; and I want to excuse myself for keeping it overlong with the plan that I mainly retained it for use in case you desired me to read proof.
This gives me a chance to say a rousing Thank you! for your gift of Leaves of Grass and for your kindness in sending the
letter of Dr. Bucke
anent the American articles—all of which
Traubel has probably
conveyed to you my gratitude for, long ago.
The unique copy of L of G. is better than much wealth.
Yours faithfully Harrison S. Morris
