January 14 Tuesday – In Hartford on or just after this date, Sam answered K.C. Tapley’s Jan. 13 query with the address of Slote & Co. and noted on Tapley’s envelope (later?) “They’ve failed” [MTP].

Webster & Co. wrote to Sam: “Your favors of January 10th. And 13th. Received. / Your order for books has been properly attended to. / We are now making out an editorial list of all the leading religious papers in the country and will ship the books tomorrow….Since Mr. Hall left the office [for England] nothing of any importance has transpired” [MTP].

Daniel Whitford wrote to Sam that both the rights of Abby Sage Richardson and Daniel Frohman on the P&P play were limited to the US  [MTP].
