June 24 to June 27 Thursday – The New York Weekly published the last of five of Sam’s Sandwich
Islands Letters. From Sam’s notebook:

“Had Ball No. 2 on promenade deck, under lanterns (no awning but heaven) but ship pitched so & dew
kept deck so slippery, was little more fun than comfort about it” [MTNJ 1: 348].
