Walt Whitman to Peter Doyle, 14 May [1875]

Nothing special to write about—I always get the papers, they come right—letters, cards, &c. the same—Wish I could be with you in Balt[imore] to-morrow to spend the day.

Notes

  • 1.

    This postcard bears the address, "Pete Doyle, | M street South—bet 4½ & 6th | Washington, D.C." It is postmarked: "Camden | May | 14 | (?); Carrier | May | 15 | (?) AM."

    The correspondence (again chiefly postcards) with Doyle in April and May was sent on Fridays, according to Whitman's habit. At this time Doyle was working out of Baltimore; note Whitman's April 30, and June 25, 1875 letters to Doyle.
