Ben;  I think it was his [final] visit back here to his home state, in 1902.

Forum:

I happened to walk by a flier at my college that was advertising The Phi
Beta Kappa Society.  The flier lists famous members--Twain as one, his
photo sandwiched between Sheryl Sanders and Sonia Sotomayor.

I didn't know this about him.  So, is it true and does anyone know when he
was made a member?

Thanks,

Ben
