Your splendid contribution to me has been rec'd by the hands of Horace Furness & is hereby deeply thank'd for ($100) & is opportune & will do me much good.
I send a copy of my Complete Works & some pictures—with a slip of little piece in May Century—& my best respects, love & thanks—am just getting over the worst of a two months' siege of the grip—bad enough yet—get out in a wheel'd chair—shall probably get out this afternoon—
God bless you, Doctor— Walt Whitman
