March 9 Sunday – In Riverdale, N.Y. Sam wrote to David Alexander Munro (1844-1910), assistant editor to George B. Harvey of the North American Review, and Greek scholar.
To-morrow I shall send you an article of perhaps 5,000 words for the North American; but if you are not going to have room for it in the very next number (April) please telephone me as soon as you have glanced at it, so that I can send it elsewhere. It needs to come out quickly, for the Prince is the text mainly [MTP: Stan V. Henkels catalog: Apr. 23, 1924, No. 1352, Item 69].
Sam’s notebook: “It must have been to-day that the N.Y. Journal man came the second time—also the first time, & got neither sight of me nor word from me. Fletcher saw him—& Katy. (I am writing this March 13)” [NB 45 TS 5].
