June – From Sam’s notebook:

“Presbyterian Young clergyman who sat among catholic worshippers & examined Baedecker’s map—said he forgot himself. These acts of brutality make religion pleasant and give people confidence in it, because they see how it builds up the humanities in the devotee” [MTNJ 2: 314].

From Livy’s pen we learn that Miss Mary Dunham of Hartford…

“…stopped here with us for two days on her way to Switzerland where she was to join her cousins…It was so delightful to have a visit with her it was like a bit of Hartford—She is so lovely…” [Salsbury 105].
