Still keep up & read & write ab't the same—but remain cribb'd in my room. Situation much the same & am ceasing to count for any thing seriously better—(only hug myself on the tho't it might be & has been much worse)—Sunny to day, & markedly cold—I have a good wood fire—

I send enclosed quite a budget of letters wh' explain themselves—I also send the French Nouvelle Revue of May last—I shall send you & Dr B. copies of the German book soon as I get them—Have rec'd Wilson's (publisher's) letter—I shouldn't wonder if he has been a little frighten'd by Alex: Gardner of Paisley, who had a small ed'n of Nov: Boughs (I hear we have quite a clientage in Scotland)—I have sent the Complete Works Vol. to Rolleston by mail—McKay has rec'd several orders, & is waiting for the better binding—I guess the N B has done & is doing fairly publisherially—have just had a short visit from two young deaf mutes f'm Washington D C—Am feeling comfortable—I will keep you posted, & you must me—

Best love & prayers Walt Whitman
