November 15 Tuesday – In Hartford Sam wrote to Webster & Co. He was still directing pieces in and out of the Library of Humor. Obtaining permission from the American Publishing Co. Was still on the menu, and Sam calculated that it should be asked for “one week before canvass begins,” so as to keep them from rushing “out a rival book ahead of us” [MTP].

Charles Webster wrote to Sam enclosing a deed for the “Roseville, N.J. property, which all of us, as well as our wives, must sign”; he would see Laffan the next afternoon [MTP].
