February 3 Monday – Sam left Bermuda on the S.S. Bermudian [D. Hoffman 100].

Isabel Lyon’s journal:  “Homer Saint-Gaudens has written to ask if the King has any of his father’s letters, & there are some” [MTP: IVL TS 17].

Gertrude W. Arnold wrote to Sam (not found at MTP).

Charles J. Langdon wrote from the Hotel Maryland in Pasadena, Calif. where he had evidently gone for his health. He apologized for being quoted regarding Clemens “being no businessman” in the NY Tribune and that Langdon had not agreed with Sam putting his money in the Knickerbocker. Although true, he didn’t understand “How the statement ever got out.” He also mentioned an inaccurate article in the Pasadena paper  “of Saturday stating that I was stopping at this hotel and was telling jokes and stories…” Everything is in the first person, as if he is alone. He ends with, “I think I am doing as well out here as could be expected. I am very much better than when I came, but I don’t rest well nights, which makes me rather weak and nervous during the day” [MTP].
