April 5, 1878 Friday

April 5 Friday – Sam wrote a note at noon from New York to Frank Fuller, who was staying at the Sturtevant House. The note was not postmarked, so was likely delivered by courier. In an unidentified business matter, Sam wrote to give “him (unidentified) any interest that will fetch him.” He wrote that he’d been to the Sturtevant House to call on Mrs. Fuller, but had to rush off to meet an appointment, which hinged on one with Howells. Then he intended to meet Fuller and catch an evening train back to Elmira, but evidently did not finish his business because he was still in NY the next day [MTLE 3: 41].
