There are going to be more stories in the press about this. It's great that there's interest in our next volume, but because some of the stories are pretty garbled, I want to clarify that no discrete "cache" or "trove" of anything has been recently found. Rick Bucci, a former editor at the MT Project who now lives and works in New York, has prepared a critical, annotated edition of Mark Twain's newspaper correspondence from San Francisco to the Virginia City Territorial Enterprise. Rick's painstaking work of many years is now being copy-edited and re-checked here in Berkeley. The discovery of new articles by Mark Twain is, as Forum readers will realize, a constant process, not a single find. Of the things that are "new" in this volume, some have been found by Rick, some by other researchers, over a period of many years. -- Benjamin Griffin Associate Editor, Mark Twain Project The Bancroft Library University of California, Berkeley 94720-6000 (510) 664-4238
