ALS signed “O. W. Holmes,” one page both sides, 8 x 10, March 7, 1845. In part: "I take the liberty of asking whether you have any promise or expectation of an article concerning Dr. Bartlett's Essay on Medical Philosophy, for your April or July number? If you have not, and if you care to have such a one as I can send you (for the July No.) I believe I can promise it to you. It is most unwillingly however, that I shall undertake to notice a book in which my own name is mentioned in terms of approbation, and it is only in consequence of the…spurring of my younger and older friends that I have been prevailed upon to think of it." In very good to fine condition, with creasing along the bottom edge.
