SALT
(Henry Shakespear Stephens, 1851-1939, Writer and Reformer)
Autograph Letter Signed to Mr Wheeler
regretting that he has “no letters from any of the Whitman circle. I have inscribed copies of Horace Traubel’s ‘Chants Communal’, 1904 and of F. B. Sanborn’s ‘Ralph Waldo Emerson’, Beacon Biographies, Boston (1901). If you are likely to care for those, please send me a p.c. I have a good many letters from persons like Grant Allen, Frederic Harrison, Wm. Rossetti etc, but if these are of slight value (as I imagine), it is not worth the trouble of getting them out. St Leonard’s Forest must be an interesting locality. I have hardly ever been in that district, as it is not easily reached from here. My flower-season has been a poor one, and most of the expeditions I have attempted were frustrated by the weather. As you will see, I am moving shortly to another part of Brighton...”, 2 sides 8vo., 19 Highdown Road, 24th September
