Dear friends,
I would like to know if there are books or articles dealing specifically
with
the relationship of Samuel and Orion Clemens.  In a cursory way, I know
Orion
was a "dreamer" who was largely supported by Sam in various crackpot
schemes.
 I know Orion had a wife and kids.  i have (in my "Portable MT") at least
some correspondence from S. to O.  Does a collection of all their letters
exist?  Didn't Sam at one point become disgusted with Orion and refuse to
provide him with any more $$?

Any info regarding these two will be welcomed.  Thanks.

Sylvia Weiser Wendel
