June 10 Thursday – Andrew Lang wrote to Sam

I have lost our entire address. Mrs. Lang wonders if you could lunch…alone, with us one day, and Lord Lorne is anxious to see you, if possible—I told him I would write.

I was reading Huck, lately, and am more certain than ever that Huck is the Great American Novel, usually spoken of as a glory of the future [MTP]. Note: Sam met and stayed with the Marquis of Lorne and Princess Louise (John D.S. Campbell) in Ottawa from May 23 to 28, 1883. See entries.
