Dear wonderful LIST-members:

I've dug around, grinding the wheels -- but it remains my understanding
that Twain and Du Bois never met:  David Levering Lewis says as much (chief
biographer of WEBD).  There are no mentions of Du Bois, or any letters to
or from Du Bois, in the MTP databases.

Again, I defer to the hundreds of truly expert readers here to confirm
simply:

Is that accurate??  was there any contact whatsoever??  thanks, --Hal B.
