November 21 Monday – Sam reprinted “Hints to Farmers,” by Alphonso Griswold, written for the Cincinnati Times, on page two of the Buffalo Express, calling it “PLAGIARIZED. BY THE ‘FAT CONTRIBUTOR’ ” [MTL 4: 240-1].
Possibly on this date Sam wrote Orion, enclosing a note from Bliss to Sam, about his need for Orion’s work. Sam wrote, “I hope you will pack up & leave for Hartford instantly & finally.” Sam asked if Orion wanted the travel money he’d offered [MTL 4: 245].
