Walt Whitman to Jeff Whitman, January 16, 1863, page 2

We would then be all together for gooder or for worser, (with a pretty sure show for the last.) But there would be more satisfaction about it, whatever fortune betided, than to have the continual gnawing we would have about Han the way things have gone on. I should write myself to Han, but you at home can survey the ground better than I can- about what is exactly needed in this present imbroglio that whining curse has put her and us all in. About my own concerns here- I must tell you Dear brother, my general idea was, (and is) to make application to Chase and Steward for some berth, on literary grounds, not political ones, (as both those magnates are inclined to travel on their literary shape, I am told.) – So I judged it would be good to get letters introductory from Emerson- and the next day after I came back from the army, 18 or 20 days since I wrote to R.W. E at Concord. – Unfortunately he was just starting off on a Canada lectures tour – and I delayed and delayed ever since, had given him up and taken to scribbling __ - but this morning’s mail brings me from Buffalo, two splendid letters from him, one letter to Seward, and one to Chase, which I hope, (and though I have well learnt not to count my chickens, & I believe and calculate) will, by the way we shall manage it, put me through, to get something. So I feel about that at any rate, the skies are brighter for the Whitman family- (That is one reason why I assume to write so about Han’s coming home, and for good, poor girl.) Jeff if fortune should indeed be favorable in this move, (as is certainly squints that way this morning) we will all be relieved of the poverty question, for dear dear mother and her (not) little responsibilities- love to dearest sister Mat. Walt

In this letter from January 16, 1863, Walt Whitman writes to his brother Thomas Jefferson “Jeff” Whitman. The first two pages of this letter are held at the Whitman House in Camden, N.J. The two pages here discuss their sister Han who is suffering. They are plotting a way to bring her home for good without the knowledge of her husband Charles Heyde.
