January 23 Sunday – Andrew Goodrich Hammond wrote to Sam (“Cadet Hammond”) to fix certain the date of his visit at Feb. 21 [MTP].

January 23 Sunday ca. – Sam wrote from Hartford to James R. Osgood. He wrote this letter after examining a royalty statement from American Publishing Co. through Dec. 31, 1880. “The thoroughness of the…inventory suggests that it was undertaken shortly after EB’s death as the management passed into new hands … That concern is not going to bust, I reckon. They have sold 4,000 copies of my old books in the 3 months ending Dec. 31” [MTLTP 131, 132n1]
