Dear Sir,
One of our artists has just
completed an excellent large portrait of yourself,
which we hope to publish in an early issue.
We should like a few lines to verse to
go with it, and if you could supply us
with this we should feel extremely
obliged.
Yours truly,

Walt Whitman  Esq. 
Dear Sir:- 
We have asked a number of the most prominent bachelors
in the country to answer the question "why am I a Bachelor?" with
the purpose of publishing a symposium on the subject in an early
number of "The Illustrated American."
We should highly esteem a contribution from your pen,
and the favor will be doubled if you can send it at your early
convenience.
Yours very truly,
Maurice M. Minton
