April 24, 1903 Friday

April 24 Friday – In Riverdale, N.Y. Isabel V. Lyon wrote for Sam to Franklin G. Whitmore.

Mr. Clemens wishes me to send the enclosed from the Jewell Pin Co. to you, saying that “as they are now paying dividends, perhaps you can sell the stock—”

The enclosed notice from the Hartford P.O. came this morning, and Mr. Clemens wishes me to send that also‘ to you, saying that you will know what to do with it, and also he says that the Hartford P.O. people ought to know that they must send registered mail to you.

Mr. Clemens seems better but still keeps to his room, though he stole down stairs a day or so ago, only to be ordered back again by his daughter and the nurse. He has coughed a great deal and rackingly, but I know he’s better [MTP].
