July 1 Monday – At Quarry Farm Sam wrote to Frank Bliss.
Yours of June 29 received [not extant]. I have been considering and shall not close with the offer of $12000, for 12 magazine articles until I have taken plenty of time to make up my mind. I’ve got to go to New York if I possibly can, before July 10, and if I go I will telegraph you and have a talk with you then.
Sam thought he could travel if the doctor consented [MTP].
