Very exciting, John. Howells and Twain; what a pair. A few references are made in my upcoming book, A New Orleans Author in Mark Twain's Court: Letters from Grace King's New England Sojourns. One of King's letters tells about her climbing with the Clemenses up to Howells's third floor apartment in Stuyvesant only to find that his lackadaisical daughter was the only one home and then their running into Howells at a restaurant later that day where the two men greeted each other like joyful boys. A far more somber letter from Howells thanks King for her compliments on his tribute "My Mark Twain." I'm looking forward to having the time to bask in your reading.
