Interesting, thanks!

Question for the group: Is there any evidence of anyone <cough, Clara,
Paine, cough> destroying or amending photographs or other documentation
of the Lyon & Ashcroft years? By analogy, I know that in families it is
not uncommon to cut an ex-spouse out of a group photograph. 

I have seen a few pics of Lyon & Ashcroft, with SLC and without him, so
I'm not asking 'do any exist?' We know there are some.

I think it is only Clemenses in the Edison Company film. Correct?

Dear Members and Twainiacs,  

With the excitement of  Mark Twain's  autobiography soon coming out and
the 
revealing of his relationship to  Isabel Lyon, I would like to extend a 
warm invitation to all interested,  to come  visit The Lobster Pot, ( 23
Mark 
Twain Lane,  Redding Ct.), the original property that Mark Twain gave to

Isabel Lyon,  during this special Centennial year.  I have lived on The
Lobster  
Pot property for 25 years and have put together a great  collection
photos 
and information regarding The Lobster Pot,  Twain and Isabel Lyon. A
special 
Mark Twain Centennial Toast on the patio is a  must for all visitors. 
 
I have included, below,  some photos of  Isabel, Twain and the Lobster
Pot. 
 Also, for all Twainiacs, as a  special Centennial sale, I have reduced
the 
prices 30% on the  Mark Twain Centennial Collection,  which  can be 
purchased by contacting me directly or with Pay Pal. To view  the
collection go to

Happy Twaining to all!
