March 24 Thursday – In Vienna, Austria, Sam wrote to H.H. Rogers, detailing the visit of Ludwig Kleinberg of the previous night. Sam closed with:

You & Mrs. Rogers need not hurry. If you reach here by the 1st of May it wil do. The country will be lovely, then.

I am taking all precautions to keep my name out of print in connection with this matter. And we will now keep the invention itself out of print as well as we can. Descriptions of it have been granted to the “Dry Goods Economist” (New York) & to a syndicate of American papers. I have asked Mr. Kleinberg to suppress these, & he feels pretty sure he can do it. With love / SLC [MTHHR 339].
