Camden N Jersey May 7 Editor Herald: Dear Sir:
I merely write a line to call attention (lest it may be overslaughed in the rush of a great office) to the poem I sent you some days since, Song of the Exposition—(will make a column & a half close minion)—proposed to be printed, if at all, in the paper for May 10, if acceptable at the price named.
I believe I mentioned in my note at the time that it had also been sent to the London Times and Chicago Tribune—& may, (or may not,) appear May 10, in them.
