  My dear Mr Whitman:

Your note was received and I am only waiting until the 1st of May when I shall be more "flush" to send you an order for five copies of your complete works.

I am glad that you are publishing works in this complete form, and feel sure that you will be well repaid in every way for the effort

I hope to do more than this in the way of getting subscribers.

Very sincerely Yours J.Q.A. Ward     friendly note from Ward, the sculptor (will send an order & money after May 1) see notes Sept 7 1888
