21 West 22d Street, May
12, 1860.
My Dear Yankee:
I am sorry not to be able to adopt your advice. I prefer not to publish it at
all, as to do it by the help of Greeley and of the Tribune. I have my
own personal feeling about it.
I am sorry to hear that you are so unwell as to be disabled
to go to Chicago. What is the matter? You ought to have told me.
Good-by. The world will not be a bit better if I do not
publish my book. After all, if it would be a Helper, help would have been found.
Mes amities à
Madame.
Yours,
Gurowski.
