October 12 Wednesday – At the Grosvenor Hotel in N.Y.C. Sam wrote to Isabel V. Lyon in Lee, Mass. to address all Harper letters to “Col. Harvey, Personal”, and never to send them to another.

“Clara is not going to Dublin, but was coming down here to see me. It is too late, & I am sorry; I leave to-morrow for Fairhaven—this time to have a real rest. I go thence to Dublin about a week from now. I’m not needed here any longer; the lawyer & Mr. Rogers can do the rest” [MTP]. Note: Sam did not go to Fairhaven on Oct. 13. Sam dined with his niece, Julia Langdon Loomis and her husband, Edward Eugene Loomis [Oct. 13 to Langdon].
