correction to correspondence annotation

A note has been revised in Whitman's Civil War correspondence. The annotation formerly read: "The poet praised O'Connor in the preface to a posthumous collection of his tales: 'He was born sample here in the 19th century of the flower and symbol of olden time first-class knighthood. Thrice blessed be his memory!'"

The faulty phrase is "was born sample." The O'Connor volume is very rare, but Google Books has Complete Prose Works, which has an alternate and more sensible version of the quote.

The annotation has been revised to say: "The poet praised O'Connor in the preface to a posthumous collection of his tales: 'He was a born sample here in the 19th century of the flower and symbol of olden time first-class knighthood. Thrice blessed be his memory!" (Complete Prose Works [New York, D. Appleton, 1910] pp.0513)."

This change affects the following letters: loc.00759, loc.00773, loc.00868, loc.00875, loc.00941, loc.00942, loc.00946, loc.00947, loc.01007, loc.01818, med.00316, med.00323, med.00324, nyp.00171, nyp.00189, nyp.00197, nyp.00210, pml.00015, tex.00121
