I was alerted by Barb Schmidt that a question was directed to me about
whether Mark Twain ever owned a copy of John G Well's legal form book, EVERY
MAN IN OWN LAWYER (San Francisco, 1869).
I cannot read the previous reply from Jerry Vorpahl, but I have seen no
evidence that MT ever saw Wells' book. By the time the Wells book was
published in SF in 1869, Twain was on to other things. His last visit to SF
had been the year before and his days of "Third House" journalism were
behind him, so by that time he probably had no need for such a book.
