July 1 Monday – Sam wrote from the Schloss Hotel in Heidelberg to his mother, Jane Clemens, and sister, Pamela Moffett, after receiving their letter with news of Samuel Moffett’s departure for Europe. Sam wrote of cheap prices for rent, a suit of clothes and language instruction. He confided that he’d need “a couple of centuries” to learn “this bloody language.” Sam also wrote that Livy had to use Susy to give the chambermaid a proper order in German. Also, Clara Clemens had a high fever [MTLE 3: 70].
