Letter

Scope and Content

Traubel transcribes a message he has received from [John] Clifford in which he thanks Traubel for the word received from the English [Bolton Whitman] group which has touched him deeply, and asks Traubel to send on his thanks. Traubel refers to Wallace's recent letter to Whitman, in which he described his impressions of Niagara [Wallace visited Philadelphia and Camden in early September, before travelling north with R.M. Bucke, stopping at Niagara en route]; Traubel's belief that all feelings aroused by celestial and terrestrial phenomena ultimately lead him back to the human.

Dated at: Camden [New Jersey, USA].
