November 2 Thursday – Isabel Lyon’s journal: “Mr. Clemens is staying on at the Pearmains’ and he is going to visit the Aldriches too. / I’m beginning my search for rooms” [MTP TS 109]. Note: Trombley points out that Clara insisted Miss Lyon live out of the house, as had been the arrangement when Livy was alive, so that this search for rooms was Lyon’s attempt to find herself housing [MTOW 84]. See excerpt from this source under Nov. 1.

Ralph W. Ashcroft wrote on Koy-Lo Co. letterhead to Sam. Hammond had conveyed willingness to instruct Wheeler to withdraw his two lawsuits and to recognize their board, if they allowed the company to go through bankruptcy and allow Hammond’s agents and other shareholders to engage as purchasers in the sale of assets. “Vernon, Baldwin, Lauterbach, Davis and Hammond O.K. this plan; so do I” [MTP]. Note: W. Vernon from London Plasmon Co.
