September 2 Wednesday

September 2-15 – Sometime during this period at Quarry Farm in Elmira, N.Y. Livy wrote to Harriet E. Whitmore (Mrs. Franklin G. Whitmore) about the “very pleasant summer” at the farm with Sue Crane. Livy asked if Harriet would check in the Clemens’ safety deposit box to check the condition of her laces, and also to see if the ivory miniature of her taken at age 17 was there. She gave plans of the family to go to the Grosvenor Hotel on Oct. 5 and stay until Oct. 24 when they would sail for Italy [MTP].
