May 12 Saturday – Isabel Lyon’s journal: “Paine[,] Underwood & Johnson get up a game on copyright / Here’s this old [illegible word] Clemens over 70—in 5 years or more his copyrights will begin to perish, & they are the main support of his children—That should start the ball. Saturday, May 12, 1906, Dublin” [MTP TS 70].

The Saturday Evening Post published “Mark Twain’s Solo.” This issue sold on eBay in Feb. 2009, but no such article is listed in the index of the magazine, so perhaps it was a cartoon.

Gertrude Natkin began a letter to Sam that she finished on May 13. See below.
