March 14, 1903 Saturday

March 14 SaturdaySam’s notebook : “Delenda est Chicago—(must be blotted out.) APH / Sailor (?) that used to tell us about his murders & piracies, & do fool sailor-talk & incorrect—from books” [NB 46 TS 12].

John Hay wrote from Thomasville, Ga. to Sam. “I do not know when I shall be able to get to New York again. My daughter and grandchild are coming to Washington in April to save me a journey to the Imperial City. But if I am ever allowed to go then I will gladly let you know. I would dearly love a few hours talk with you.” Mrs. and Miss Sage were there and they all had had pleasant talks about Sam. He heard that Livy was better and was glad to hear it [MTP].
