August 29 Saturday – At the Grosvenor Hotel in N.Y.C. Sam wrote to Will Larrymore Smedley, artist in Chatauqua, N.Y., thanking him for the landscape; Sam would send to Riverdale for it [MTP]. Smedley had illustrated a newer two-volume edition of GA and would also illustrate the small volume The Dog’s Tale in 1904.
The International Yacht Races were postponed due to gale winds and the safety of the sailors [NY Times, Aug. 30, p.10]. Sam “was at hand at all the races” and so did not go [Sept. 1 to Twichell].
