I was halfway through reading an article about Walt Whitman and Oscar Wilde doing it, and was like, “that’s quite a bit from so little to go on..”

But then I went looking for contemporary accounts of the meeting, and it looks like somebody then decided to write a little fanfic about it, so nevermind!

The Valley Spirit, Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, January 25, 1882
