Hi Barb,

I don't know how many other people plan on writing a conclusion to "Huck
Finn and Tom Sawyer Among the Indians," nor how many have done so in the
past.  But one thing I do know is that in order to know where Twain was
going to go plotwise & what adventures he planned for his characters that
one must at least understand both the 8.5 chapters & his working notes.  The

most important of those notes are found in "Our Wild Indians."

Those notes reveal Twain's ideas, ideas which cannot be replicated via pure
guesswork.  Unless all of Twain's notes are carefully studied, how can
anyone faithfully emulate Twain's ideas & purpose when writing the sequel?
To my knowledge, only a precious few of those notes are recorded.  What the
Mark Twain Project has is the actual Paige proofs, & copies of the 8+
handwritten chapters (a few pages are missing).

Cordially,
Bob
