November  18 Tuesday – An  untitled sketch, dated Nov. 8 and signed “L,” about a Cincinnati boarding house ran in the Keokuk Post.  It is attributed to Clemens [ET&S 1: 382; MTL 1:  70]. Britton examines the piece and makes a case for it being Sam’s, and  Mcfarlane being autobiographical rather than fictitious [16- 17]. Note: Britton mistakenly  writes the sketch was published on Nov. 8, but it was dated Nov 8   and published Nov. 18.
