This manuscript, probably written in the 1850s or 1860s, contains approximately five lines toward a poem about the effects
of war that is not known to have been published in Whitman's lifetime. On the reverse side of the leaf (tex.00467)
are two sentences or lines, one headed "Locust," and the other headed
"Sunflower," which may have contributed to a piece of Civil War-era journalism.
