To the members of the Mark Twain Forum,

I've been trying to track down the source of the story about the night in 1866 when Twain considered suicide. Apparently Twain mentioned the incident in the margins of a book he was reading in the early 1900s; I've learned that the particular reference can be found in Alan Gribben's Mark Twain's Library: A Reconstruction (2 volumes). This excellent work lists and comments on Twain's books alphabetically, and there is no index. So, before I begin with the entry for Abbey's Old Songs and work my way through to Zurcher's Meteors, I thought I'd check to see if anyone knows which particular book the marginalia appears in. Thanks to anyone who can help me.
