November 3 Saturday – Either this day or the next Sam took a train trip of an hour-plus and visited daughter Jean in her Katonah, N.Y. sanitarium [Nov. 5 to Emilie Rogers].

Andrew Carnegie wrote to Sam. “So glad to learn that you are yourself again, back in town running about able ‘to take sustenance’ . Delighted to attend at dinner. / I hope we are going to snow under that Reprobate Hearst—His article upon Gilder roused my ire. / Yours Ever…” [MTP]. Note: see Carnegie’s Nov. 2 “invitation.”

William C. Edwards for Guaranty Trust of NY wrote to Sam. “We have to-day received a letter from your Secretary, Miss I.V. Lyon, requesting us to mail a check for the balance standing to your credit, and we are to-day sending her a check to your order for $1,853.75…./ We regret exceedingly that you find it necessary to close your account with us…” etc. etc. [MTP].
