March 19 Saturday – Susy Clemens’ twentieth birthday.

Once again Sam was away from one of his daughters on a birthday, this time Susy. Sam and Livy were enjoying a sunny respite in Menton, France.

Frederick J. Hall wrote a Feb. statement of affairs: notes of $25,000 with $16,000 used would need to be renewed, and Hall enclosed them asking Sam to endorse and return; sales for the month gave a net profit of “about $3,000,” which Hall wrote did not include the sales of The Idler, which were out on news stands and no present accounting could be made [MTP].
