“All  right—will smoke with you, if Redpath can arrange a night that will suit all  around. Confound that ferry!” [MTPO: Sales catalog, Thomas R. Madigan, 1935,  item 67].

“Our  Fellow Savages of the Sandwich Islands” ; One version of this  speech is published in Mark Twain Speaking, p.4-15. See [MTL 3: 483-6] for sources and more  information
