June 1 Tuesday – Sam answered a letter from John J. Murphy, the New York agent for the San Francisco Alta California. Sam was still reading proofs, with “several chapters to read yet.” He was of two minds about going to California [MTL 3: 254-5].

Sam also sent Silas S. Packard a speech that he wanted read in lieu of his attending the New York Press Club dinner. “I shall be at the St. Nicholas Hotel from the 11th to 15th” [MTL 3: 255].
