In _Mark Twain's Letters, Vol. 1_ (Harper & Bros., 1917), p. 113, edited by Albert Bigelow Paine, he gives a string of quotes from Twain's Letter #13 to the _Sacramento Daily Union_. The letter was published June 21, 1866 and has an extensive description of Charles Coffin Harris. Paine quotes two phrases from Letter #13 used to describe Harris: "a big washing and a small hang-out" and "a damn fool in general" What source did Paine use for these phrases. I do not find them in the original microfilm for the _Daily Union_ nor in any of the following which reprint the _Union_ correspondence from Twain: _Mark Twain and Hawaii_ by Walter Francis Frear _Letters from the Sandwich Islands_, edited by G. Ezra Dane _Mark Twain's Letters from Hawaii_, edited by A. Grove Day Was Paine quoting from the original manuscript of the letters which have never been published? Barb
