July 10 Saturday – The Clemens party arrived back in Elmira (See July 12 to Whitmore), the return trip all by rail taking two days, far less than the meandering by steamer across the Great Lakes and down the Mississippi on the outbound legs.
Meanwhile, in Rome at 5 PM, Pope Leo XIII blessed a rosary that was a gift for the Clemens family, carried back by the Websters after their audience with the Pope [MTNJ 3: 261&n115].
