April 12-15 Sunday – Sometime during this period Sam left a calling card at Charlotte Teller Johnson’s house: “I have come to ask after your cold, & to see if you are up & about: in which case can you see me in your workroom instead of venturing out into the air to come to my house? I hope you are well enough to take that risk, but naturally I am not in a position to guess intelligently. / SLC” [MTP].

Sam wrote a four-page unpublished MS called “A Cloud-Burst of Calamities” in which he narrated a day-by-day for Apr. 12 to 14, 1906 concerning the Maxim Gorky situation and scandal [MTP].
