Twain and HH Rogers did have mutual acquaintances and moved within similar
social circles, so it is quite likely that they may have crossed paths at
some point, but there's no evidence I can find of Rogers specifically
attending one of Mark Twain's lectures prior to their introduction by Rev.
Twichell around 1890.

I hope someone can prove me wrong!
