Notes
Author: Ed Folsom (University of Iowa)
Presents a forgotten piece of journalism from a January, 1892, issue of The Advertiser entitled "Walt Whitman's Fad," which claims (mistakenly) that Whitman used to wear a stars-and-stripes necktie in New York and offers Horace Traubel's notes regarding Whitman's reaction to the story.
