March 2, 1904 Wednesday

March 2 Wednesday – At the Villa Reale di Quarto near Florence, Isabel V. Lyon wrote for Sam to Francis P. Elliott (1861-1924), at this time editor of The New Age, Washington, D.C.

Mr. Clemens directs me to write for him, saying that any MSS. that he may have belongs now to Messrs. Harper and Bros. If you care to go to Mr. Duneka of Harper & Bros, asking if he is willing to sell the article to you for publication in your magazine, and if he consents to do so, Mr. Clemens will then send the MS [MTP]. Note: Elliott had been with Harpers (1898-1900), and managing editor of Home Magazine (1900-1903).
