May 6 Saturday – In Elimra at Quarry Farm, Sam wrote a short note to Livy:

Livy darling, it’s lovely to get so many letters from you — they keep me in touch with you all the time. I got Susy’s welcome letter [not extant] this morning; I want to read that Louis XVII book, ever so much. / All the family here are bewitchingly lovely and lovable…Jervis…a handsome, manly, clean-hearted lad, & find all through [MTP]. Note: this likely was Louis XVI since the boy who would have been XVII died at age 10.
