December 3 Wednesday – Sam gave his “Sandwich Islands” lecture at Queen’s Concert Rooms, London [MTPO]. Sam wrote a short note from London to Livy:
“Livy darling, I am as busy as I can be, day & night, revamping & memorizing my “Roughing It” lecture, because I want to use it next week. After that I want to try a reading here if I get time to prepare it. I won’t write you more, now, except to say that I love you with all my heart” [MTL 5: 493].
