June 20 SundaySam’s notebook : “June 20. Wrote Douglas Garth, 8 Rawlinson Road, Oxford, that the tax collector had threatened to take some of the furniture & sell it, & asked him to protect us” [NB 41 TS 32].

Douglas Garth, owner of 23 Tedworth Square in London, replied by telegram to Sam’s telegram: “Just received telegram from my wife on your letter this morning am sending cheque for taxes” [MTP].

The San Francisco Examiner, p. 13, published Sam’s cable on Queen Victoria’s Jubilee: “England’s Jubilee Pageant to Be the Greatest in History.” Also in this issue was Sam’s “His Jubliee Art,” p.13-14.

The former was reprinted in the 1923 Europe and Elsewhere [AMT-1: 706]. Note: see also June 23.
