March 5 Thursday – Sam reached Hartford and home in the afternoon. He wrote from there to Orion and Mollie Clemens. He thought it best to put off a reading-trip to England and Australia until the next year as he wanted to closely supervise the canvas of Grant’s biography, which Webster & Co. would publish. Upon reflection he wrote,

“Ma seems to be growing young again very fast” [MTP].

The Boston Evening Traveler called Huck Finn, “singularly flat, stale, and unprofitable” [Perry 146].

Charles Webster wrote various business matters: Grant book scheme [MTP].
