The earliest surviving mention of Moby-Dick is from early May 1850, when Melville told fellow sea author Richard Henry Dana Jr. it was “half way” written.In September 1850, Melville borrowed three thousand dollars from his father-in-law Lemuel Shaw to buy a 160-acre farm in Pittsfield, Massachusetts. Melville called his new home Arrowhead because of the arrowheads that were dug up around the property during planting season. That winter, Melville paid Hawthorne an unexpected visit, only to discover he was working and “not in the mood for company”. Hawthorne’s wife Sophia gave him copies of Twice-Told Tales and, for Malcolm, The Grandfather’s Chair. Melville invited them to visit Arrowhead soon, hoping to the Universe with a bottle of brandy & cigars” with Hawthorne, but Hawthorne would not stop working on his new book for more than one day and they did not come. After a second visit from Melville, Hawthorne surprised him by arriving at Arrowhead with his daughter Una. According to Robertson-Lorant, “The handsome Hawthorne made quite an impression on the Melville women, especially Augusta, who was a great fan of his books”. They spent the day mostly “smoking and talking metaphysics”
