November 8 Tuesday – At the Hotel Krantz in Vienna, Austria, Sam wrote a note and enclosed a MS to James M. Tuohy of the N.Y. World, who had requested a story for the Christmas season. If Tuohy didn’t want the story sent (“The Man That Corrupted Hadleyburg”) would he please forward it on to H.H. Rogers, and the same with “Wapping Alice” when he received it [MTP]. Note: see Nov. 2.

Sam’s notebook: “Wrote Rice to send the rest & I would sign the receipt” [NB 40 TS 49]. Note: the check from Joseph Mayer Rice of the Forum that he had written James B. Pond about on Nov. 5 was short $50.
