September 10 Wednesday – Sam wrote a short from London to William S. Andrews (1841-1912), about being home in plenty of time to help Andrews prepare for an appearance at Association Hall in New York [MTL 5: 434-5].
Sam also wrote to Thomas Wallace Knox, who had asked Sam to write something for an anthology by the Lotos Club and suggested Sam visit Vienna. Sam good-naturedly declined but would later offer “An Encounter with an Interviewer” for the Nov. 1874 volume [MTL 5: 435].
Sam also telegraphed Henry Lee with news of his arrival back in London [437].
