Content:
An address book filled with names and addresses, notes, figures, lists,
and trial lines for poems and prose. Contained within the address book
are trial lines, which Whitman labeled "Old Proverb," called "[I'd make the Songs of the
Nation]" (see image 26). Also in this notebook is a note
entitled "Death of
Lincoln" describing ambitions for a piece on that topic (see
image 5).
