Pref. dated (p. vi): "October 22, 1858."

"The following letter [from M.I. Stout to H.S. Merrill, dated Saturday night, October 9, 1858] was found in the stand drawer in Ira's room [at the Blue Eagle Institution] on the morning after his attempt at suicide, October 13th. It was probably written the last thing before the lancet was applied. This also was in phonography, with the request that it should be published." Cf. p. [9].
