Axa Aasoa MJch April 29 18S7 UK1SG the winter of 1878 I was a io Jonroer for several weeks ta Phlladel phlaand one morning while sitting in my room at my boarding boute wondering how I could moat pleas antly spend the forenoon It suddenly occurred to roe that I would cross over the Delaware to Camden and pay4 my respects1 to the author of Leaves of Grsss Walking down Market street to the idoek I stepped aboard one of the Csmden ferry boats and iras sooa eosveyed to the opposite shore aa leavjngtoe boat some fifteen zntnntes later 1 stood at the door of the poets home Camden Is a comparatively quiet easy going town of some 73000 inhabitants and though Mparated bom PbUsdelphla by the broad Delaware it really a suborb of the Utter city irery many of its people doing builneii la the larger town across the river Whitman at tbe time was living yery comfortably and happily at his brothers home the latter Colonel George whitman being en gaged la business lathe city of his residence His house stood on the corner of Fifth and Seventh streets in a PhiladelphiaPhiladelphia looking quarter of the town where ones eyes continually rests on long rows of red brick dwellings with the ever presentpresent white marble doorsteps and white wooden shutters A bay window presented itself to one of the streets at which Whitman was In the habit of sitting for hours at times watching the passers by or gazing upon a beautiful garden spot over the way in which stood a fine magnolia tree at thb roa aoxx Hiving rang the bell It was not long before the door was opened by a maid servant who after I had handed her my card ushered me Into the parlor at the left of the haU She returned ia a moment saying that Mr Whitman would be down from his room toon As I tat waiting his appearance I observed two large paintings on tbe walls of the apartment one being a portrait of the peet made as he subsequently Informed me a dozen or so years before At the time of tbe sitting his hair and beard had not turned perceptibly gray or his fsce lost the ruddy freshness of youthful yean The other portrait a superior painting ares as I was afterward informed nearly 150 years old It represented a Dutch ancestor of the poet whom be very strongly resembled both in feature and form Both had the same fine thoughtful countenance with eyebrows especially prominent while the ancestor was dressed in nearly the same manner sa hia namesake Presently I heard the alow heavy step of some person descending the hall stairs and a few seconds later the door opened and my eyes rested on the good gray peet A hearty grasp of the soft warm hand withe happy to meet you gieetlng and at onoel was pot wholly at case a tin ncTtrn or wbitjiak Mr Whitman walked with a stoat cane and wse dressed as is hia wont In a suit of grey loose fitting garments with an ample turnover linen collar worn somewhat Arjathastrle of Byron though not in the way of Imitation Whitman being no particular admirer of the author of Child Harold The poet busby hair and beard were very gray and quite long and his lace somewhat norid wore an expression ot genuine content and happiness I found him to be of large and commanding presence with a certain grace ot movement notwithstanding his at times severe physical ailment he having been attacked some three or four years previously with what he termed a balling kind ot paralysis Seating himself la a large easy chair and letting hft handsome bine eyes rest upon me he inyjulred how far I had come and If I proposed remaining long la Philadelphia Speaking of Philadelphia be said he regarded It as a most attractive city in many rerpetta and nothing gave him greater pleasure than to slowly walk its busy streets and observe all that was going oaT Of Fairmont Park he spoke most enthusiastically saying that nature had done so much tor the place man couldnt spoil it if wanted to Of himself he talked yery modestly His voice was singularly grave and sweet as it seemed to me and ai the while he was discoursing I confess I could not resist a feeling of real admiration for the man whom until then I had sever before seen Referring to his work as a writer he said he was fully aware of the fact that with the large majority of Intellectual people his stylo and philosophy as he expressed it provoked a feeling almost If not quits of ridicule Still this reflection did not appear to give him the least disturbance of mind He felt he said that his philosophy notwithstanding his unorthodox mannerisms was Indeed a noble one aad In itnre years it would win the commendation of all thinking minds BZCOLUCIIOHI OT ACTBOXS He had a kind word for everybody even ihecrmct and although be stood he felt almost alone among literary tollers he had no tU feeling toward any soul His heart was fuU of charity for aU Bespoke of Tennyson wkh whom he hid kept np an occasional correspondence tor years as the greatest living poet at toe same time expressing a profound admiration for Bryant Emerson and Longfellow He thought it exceedingly pleasant to reflect that poetry la America had for sponsors four such manly vigorous and pure writers as Bryant Longfellow Whittier aad Xxnerr on In 11553 Thorean and Aleott called upon him at his mothers house la Brooklyn aad since that time he had met the latter I think In Washington during the war when be
