N.W. 6 Octr./85. Dear Whitman,
As announced the other day, I have now the pleasure of enclosing Post-Office orders for £37.12.
It escaped me to mention in my previous letter that a Mr. Ernest Rhys not heretofore known to me (59 Cheyne Walk, Chelsea,
London) called on me 2 or 3 weeks ago, wishing to obtain your address—wh. I gave him. He intended, as I understood, to write to you with a view to
entering into some terms regarding a London edition of your Poems. He seemed to me to
have a genuine feeling of regard for yourself & your works, & he asked me to
convey to you an expression of his feeling when next I shd write.
