Content:
Two brief notes written on what appears to be a scrap from a small
notebook. The note at the top of the scrap furnished an image that
Whitman used in "Full-Starr'd Nights,"
first published in
Specimen Days &
Collect
(1882–83) and reprinted in
Complete Prose Works
(1892). The other note refers to an article titled "A Study of Carlyle," published in the
April 1881 issue (vol. 39, pp. 494–609) of
Contemporary Review
and signed "The Author of 'The Moral
Influence of George Eliot.'" The article thus referred to had appeared
in the February 1881 issue (vol. 39, pp. 173–185), with the signature
"One who Knew Her."
