For quite a few good photos of both Clara and Susy taken just a few years 
later see OVERLAND WITH MARK TWAIN (Elmira College, 1992).

My wife helped me dig through piles of books.  Bless her.

The wagon photo is also published in "The Life and Times of Mark Twain", by
Dennis Well and, on page 124. The caption there also puts Susy's name first,
implying the girl on the left (in the foreground in the white dress) is
Susy.  I think that girl is Clara.

The photo I mentioned of Susy on the porch at Quarry Farm, taken months
before her death, is on page 175 of "Mark Twain: An Illustrated Biography",
by Geoffrey Ward, Dayton Duncan, and Ken Burns.  She sure has a sad,
depressed look on her face, poor child.

Dear Twainians,

Steve Courtney was kind enough to send me a digital copy of the photograph
of the girls in the wagon.  I think anyone interested should be able to
download it from this link:

I'll be interested in any opinions about the girls' identities.  I'd also
like to know what that other book was that published this photo a few years
ago.

Carl
