Dear Forum Friends: There is going to be a dedication of a statue of Sam
Clemens (they are calling him Mark Twain, but he is a 25-year-old
steamboat pilot in the statue) on the riverfront of Hannibal on July 4,
2003.  Here is the program.  I invite you who will be within driving
range to join us. I'm sure Sam will be enjoying this emensely.
