June 21 Sunday – The photograph of Clemens playing cards with Dorothy Harvey and her friend Pauline Martin, and Louise Paine was likely taken this day, the day after their arrival at Stormfield [MT Journal Spring/Fall 2006 p. 25].

The New York Times, p. C2 under “Nearly 10,000 Guests Bidden to Windsor,” ran a final paragraph about Clara Clemens:

Miss Clara Clemens, daughter of Mark Twain, left for Paris with Miss Marie Nichols, the Boston violinist, after giving a successful concert at Bechstein Hall. Miss Clemens and Miss Nichols will pass the rest of the summer on the Continent, returning to the United States in September for a concert tour, which will extend from Boston to San Francisco. Miss Clemens complains that her father’s reputation has overshadowed her here as well as in America.
