September 11 Friday – At 8 a.m. from the Grosvenor Hotel in N.Y.C., Sam wrote to Frederick A. Duneka.
I am leaving for Elmira, N.Y. I shall be back again next Monday morning.
Meantime please have a copy made of the lawyer’s opinion (1894-or ’95) concerning my competency or incompetency to sell or transfer the copyright-renewals of my books. Please send it to 26 Broadway so that I may find it there when I come.
Is there a cause in the Bliss-Harper contract providing for renewals? [MTP: eBay Mar. 28, 2002].
Sam then took the train for Elmira. He had planned on returning to N.Y.C on Sunday, Sept 20.
