Manuscript notes, heavily revised, apparently for the preface to
Whitman's 1891 volume
Good-Bye My Fancy,
although the printed preface (titled
"Preface Note to 2d Annex, Concluding L.
of G.—1891") incorporates very few of the actual words
and phrases from this manuscript. The preface was later reprinted,
without change, in the 1891-92 printing of
Leaves of Grass.
On the reverse is a letter from Louisa
Drewry, dated July 10, 1890.
