Content:
Partial draft of the essay published as "Some
Personal and Old-Age Memoranda" in the March 1891 issue of
Lippincott's
Monthly Magazine.
The leaf is made from a proof copy of
"Autobiographic Note. From an old
'remembrance copy,'" which had appeared in Horace Traubel's
1889 volume
Camden's Compliment to
Walt Whitman,
to which is pasted an envelope addressed in the hand of Richard Maurice Bucke to
Whitman. The essay was reprinted as "Some
Personal and Old-Age Jottings" in the February 28, 1891 issue of
The
Critic,
in
Good-Bye My Fanc
y
(1891), and in
Complete Prose Works
(1892).
