January 19 Sunday – From Livy’s diary:

“Mr. Chamberlin let us have the low land for less than $9 a foot—but in measuring the land there proved to be more of the bank than Mr. C. thought, so that by taking a hundred and thirteen (I believe) of the table land seventy five did not bring us to the flat land, so Mr. C. sold us the rest of the bank for $50 a front foot [Salsbury 13]. Note: Franklin Chamberlin.

In the same entry, Livy wrote about Sam pulling her on a stool affixed to a sled over to the Charles Perkins home.

Mrs. N.G. Wakeman for Edgar M. Wakeman wrote to Sam, enclosing letter from Vernon Seaman, and expressing her thanks and enclosing a clipping from the Dec. 28, 1872 S.F. Chronicle, “Captain Wakeman’s Decks Cleared” etc., having raised $4,750 for Wakeman’s support [MTP].
