No slips of the printed Preface or "additional note" have arrived yet—I would like three or four of each of them—fine weather this forenoon, as I write, sunny & "growing"—rec'd last even'g a kind complimentary greeting by cable from Henry Irving—I remain much as usual—bodily disabled, however, & a prisoner to the house—I expect to see Herbert Gilchrist to-day (from N[ew] York)—send me a copy of Spec: Days soon as it is out—
Walt Whitman
