July 26 Thursday – Jean Clemens’ third birthday.

Sam wrote from Elmira to Charles Webster in New York City. Sam asked him to run up to Elmira “about Monday or Monday night” and lend him his head “for a couple of hours” [MTBus 218]. It was only a ten-hour trip, after all. Sam wanted to discuss the new memory game as a commercial product, and get Webster to begin the marketing.

Daniel Whitford for Alexander & Green wrote more details of the Duncan suit against the Times [MTP].

July 26 Thursday ca. – About this day in Elmira, Sam wrote a laundry list to Webster about the history game, dealings with Frank Bliss, and his having “telegraphed O. to cancel Cincin note” [MTP]. Note: “O” was likely Osgood.
