October 26 Saturday – Sam’s notebook carries an entry with this date that he offered his friend Henry C. Robinson royalties on the Paige typesetter at the same price he’d given Clara Spaulding Stanchfield [3: 524]. Note: Robinson, an attorney, was a Friday night billiards regular.

Robert Underwood Johnson for Century Magazine wrote to Sam :

We are organizing Authors’ Readings for Copyright at Chicago (for the third or fourth week in November, most probably) the idea being to charter a car and take the Eastern readers out and back without personal expense. May we count on you? [MTNJ 3: 525n139].
