The spirit of this note made it into the "Lingering Note" at the end of Whitman's essay "Elias Hicks, Notes (such as they are)"
in
November Boughs
(1888).
Apparently, Whitman intended to write a longer essay which did not
allude to Hicks. Grier dates this scrap from the 1870s because of the
steadiness of the handwriting (
Notebooks and Unpublished Prose Manuscripts
[New York: New York University Press], 6, 2101).
