May 12 Sunday – Isabel Lyon’s journal: “Busy with Santa, sleep and packing in the afternoon” [MTP TS 56].

W.H. Helm wrote to Sam. “The act of writing a notice (I know your opinion of reviewers!) of your Christian Science for the ‘Atheneum’—aroused my memories of Dollis Hill in August 1900, when I had the only opportunities that have come to me of hearing (& smoking the cigars of) an author whose books have meant a great deal to me from boyhood” [MTP]. Notes: After May 12 Lyon in Tuxedo Park, replied for Sam. “Mr. Clemens gone to N.Y to make some necessary preparations for his trip to Eng. & for what he regards as a very sane & lucid review of the book /  He has read no review but that one but likes that one—”. Helm has one book listed in Gribben, p. 306: Studies in Style, London (1900).
